Résumé

Under the Act an owner of land may construct and maintain a fence to mark the boundary between the owner’s land and adjoining lands. Where the owner of any land desires to have a fence constructed, or where such a fence exists, to have it repaired or reconstructed, and where the owner has not entered into a written agreement with the adjoining owner for sharing the costs of the construction, reconstruction or repair, the owner may notify in the prescribed form the clerk of the local municipality in which the land is situate that the owner desires fence-viewers to view and arbitrate as to what portion of the fence each owner shall construct, reconstruct or repair and maintain and keep up. The Act also prescribes duties and powers of fence-viewers; the form and content of fence-viewers' award; how to select the location of fence where the formation of the ground by reason of streams or other causes, it is, in the opinion of the fence-viewers, impracticable to locate the fence upon the line between the lands of the adjoining owners; fees; certification; and other matters.
