Property Survey?

When starting a fence project it is vital to know that the proposed fence will be on your property. This is important to you, the town officials and your neighbors.

1. If you already have an up-to-date property survey, it may have enough detail to locate your property corners, where you may find or can place stakes. This will help you discern your property lines.

2. If you do not have current valid property survey, you will have to hire a Land Surveying Company to create one and that will usually require your property deed.

Call Before You Dig

Call at 811 or 800-272-1000

At least three business days, prior to outdoor construction or digging, contractors and property owners – whoever is excavating – must call New Jersey One Call at 811 or 800-272-1000 and take the following steps:

Wait for the site to be marked with paint, flags or stakes. Yellow indicates the presence of underground natural gas lines.
Respect the marks and dig with care.
Hand dig within two feet of buried piping and facilities.
Be mindful that inclement weather may wash away the painted markings.

It's FREE and it's the LAW.

Additional Information

Englewood, like the rest of New Jersey, was populated by Lenape Native Americans prior to European colonization. The Lenape who lived in the Englewood region were of the "turtle clan" which used a stylized turtle as its symbol, but little else is known of those inhabitants. When Henry Hudson sailed up what would become known as the Hudson River in 1607, he claimed the entirety of the watershed of the river, including Englewood, for the Netherlands, making the future region of Englewood a part of New Netherland. However, the region remained largely unsettled under Dutch rule as the Dutch did little to encourage settlement north of modern Hudson County, as the imposing New Jersey Palisades blocked expansion on the west bank of the Hudson. In 1664, after the Dutch surrendered all of New Netherland to England, the rate of settlement picked up. The English were generous with land grants, and many families, not only English but also Dutch and Huguenot, settled the area, which during the colonial era was known as the English Neighborhood.
