Hi all,
I am trying to find more information on land use covenants for foxhunting, specifically in Maryland but other states would work, too. I am just having a really hard time weeding through info about hunting licenses and furbearer trapping. I am specifically looking to see if there is a specific law or court case that has upheld these land use covenants. Does anyone have a better idea how I should be searching?
In case I’m not clear, at least in the area of Maryland where I live, property deeds can be sold with land rights by hunt clubs in perpetuity, so no matter who owns the property, it is deeded that they must allow the hunt to be on their land, at least parts of it. I am interested to see how this impacts keeping open spaces and ag land in the face of more housing developments, etc. I am also interested to see how this has been contested and enforced.
Thank you for your help!
