744. (Repealed).
M.C. 1916, a. 473; 1996, c. 2, s. 455; 1999, c. 40, s. 60; 2005, c. 6, s. 214.
744. The fence dividing the land of a private individual from a municipal road, the maintenance of which is at the expense of the municipality, shall be deemed a boundary fence as between the owner or occupant of such private land and the municipality, saving the case of an express provision to the contrary in a by-law or a procès-verbal.
This article does not apply to a fence dividing a front road from any lot, which fence, when required, remains at the expense of the owner or occupant of the lot; but the establishment of a front road between two ranges in no manner alters the obligations of neighbors, when such road is solely at the charge of one of such ranges.
Nevertheless, when the front road of a range is situated, in whole or in part, in another range, the proprietors of the range of which it is the front road are none the less bound to keep it in order.
Notwithstanding this article, fences are always subject to the regulation authorized by articles 521, 522 and 627.
