A quick definition of tacit dedication:

Term: Tacit Dedication

Definition: Tacit dedication is when someone dedicates their property for public use without explicitly saying so. This can happen when the owner is silent or inactive about the use of their property, and the public starts using it for their benefit. It is a type of dedication where there is no express agreement between the owner and the public.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Tacit dedication is a type of dedication where the owner of a property donates or creates an easement for public use without an express agreement. It arises from silence or inactivity.

For example, if a property owner allows the public to use a portion of their land for a long period of time without objection, it can be considered a tacit dedication. The owner's silence or inactivity is seen as an implied agreement to dedicate the land for public use.

Another example is if a property owner builds a sidewalk on their land that connects to a public sidewalk without any agreement or compensation. This can also be considered a tacit dedication as the owner's actions imply a dedication of the land for public use.

Tacit dedication is a way for the public to gain access to land or easements without the need for an express agreement or compensation. It is important to note that the dedication must be for public use and not for the benefit of a specific individual or group.
