Visitor raises deed-versus-parcel-map discrepancy; Selectboard advises a survey is needed
Summary
A visitor, W.H. Morey, told the Selectboard he believes town parcel maps contradict his deed; the board reiterated that the deed is his legal description and said only a survey can resolve the issue and that Brian will check with the town attorney on parcel-map implementation actions.
Visitor W.H. Morey told the Selectboard he believes the town's parcel maps do not match his deed. Board members responded that a deed is the legal description of a property and that only a land survey can confirm or challenge the deed's accuracy. The minutes record that Brian Dubie will check with the town's legal counsel about actions taken when parcel maps are implemented.
The board did not adopt any action in open session to alter maps or require a survey; the minutes note the legal position that deed language governs property description and that only a survey would contest it. No timeline or specific next steps for Mr. Morey beyond the request that Brian consult legal counsel are recorded.
