When a real estate developer donates roads and utilities to the city after project completion, this process is known as what?

Dedication
Conveyance
Transfer of title
Easement grant

The correct answer is: Dedication

The correct term for when a real estate developer donates roads and utilities to a city after completing a project is "dedication." Dedication is a legal process that involves the developer formally relinquishing private rights to a parcel of land, allowing it to be used for public purposes, such as roads, parks, or public utilities. This action not only facilitates public use but also ensures that these facilities are maintained and managed by municipal authorities. In contrast, conveyance typically refers to the transfer of ownership from one party to another, which does not specifically imply a donation to public use. Transfer of title is also related to ownership but doesn't carry the same connotation of public benefit as dedication does. Easement grant pertains to granting a right to use a portion of property for a specific purpose, often related to utility access, but it does not involve the outright donation of land to the public. Therefore, "dedication" is the precise term for this action in the context of real estate development and public infrastructure.
