Summary

At a Jan. 27 Select Board meeting, heirs claimed ancestral ownership of two small lots abutting the post office; the Conservation Commission said it will monitor the issue but took no action at its Jan. 28 meeting.

The commission noted a report from the Jan. 27 Select Board meeting that heirs had presented information claiming ancestral ownership of two small town-owned lots adjacent to the post office (identified in the minutes as Map 9, lot 11 and lot 14) and said the commission will monitor developments.

Matt Welch summarized the Select Board exchange, saying heirs claimed their ancestors had owned the parcels and that the family had allowed the town to use them for schools but never relinquished ownership. The minutes record no formal legal action or resolution; the commission will watch for further developments at future meetings.
