Has No Life - Lives on TB
Not buying that AT ALL. Normally there is a “setback” which is a certain distance outward from the center of the street. Your property starts where the setback ends.
Depends on how it was platted. Some private roads are owned by the HOA where others are platted as part of the lot to the centerline of the road with maintenance of the road the responsibility of the HOA. As a matter of fact there are differences between streets, roads, lanes, terraces, etc.
Usually the setback is a right-of-way that encroaches on land that is platted as part of the lot. The lot owner pays taxes on the land that is platted as part of the lot, as others have noted sometimes to the center line of the road. It all depends on how it was platted. Our little county has a subdivision that was platted such that the property owners association owns the land platted as roads yet they have never paid property tax on that land since none of the county assessors were capable of the calculations needed to accurately define the amount of land to be taxed (too many curves).
