Two links that might help:https://www.linz.govt.nz/kb/520 https://www.gallawaycookallan.co.nz/...r-right-of-way
    From the second link I can see that if a future landowner causes grief for hunters using the fenced easement by for example pugging it up with cattle or blocking it, the matter would end up in court - if the Council would pay, whereas a legal road has much greater protection and remedy
    The thing that worries me is with the closure of the paper road, council are going through a consultation process which gives us some opportunity to object.

    I'm not sure if a consultation would happen if a landowner wanted to close an easement.

    It's the potential of the landowner and council being able to close it without public input that I'm not happy about.

    I might give the guy I've been talking to at the council a call on Tuesday and see if he can answer that.
