Abutter Definition from Encyclopedia Dictionaries & Glossaries

Wikipedia English - The Free Encyclopedia
Abutter
An abutter is a person (or entity) whose property is adjacent to the property of another. In land use regulations, concerns of an abutter may be given special attention, being the one most likely to suffer specific harm from a hasty, uninformed decision. For example, a developer requesting a subdivision may be required to notify (or pay to notify) all abutters of the proposal and invite them to a public hearing. Regulations may also provide an abutter with the right to be heard at the hearing, unlike others who must request permission to be heard, at the discretion of the board.
