Summary

The bill lets a single‑family homeowner ask a district court for permission to go onto an adjoining property when repairs cannot be done without that access and the neighbor refuses or does not answer a written request. It encourages the parties to try mediation first, but the owner can go to court if needed. The court may set conditions such as notice, compensation, or insurance, and the rule does not apply to government‑owned land.
