The first thing would be to ask if anybody has any questions because it maybe a little bit confusing, what we're actually doing here. Mr. Fanuele: You might want to explain a little bit about it. '-" Mr. L. Paggi: There's actually four lots, (point to map) - there's a lot here, there's another lot here, this is an existing lot for this line here and this is an existing lot. What is was - was six brothers, one brother remains and the lots have gone to their children. This is an existing home now, one of the children have built back here, rather than continuing access over a right-of-way between these two properties and rather than this continuing to be an individual lot, what they all agreed to do was to give this lot it's own access rather than the right-of-way, and having them be ownership of this strip and just attaching (this) to (this portion) and this to this portion. We're in front ofthe Planning Board for a lot line re-alignment now. Mr. diPiemo: So actually it will be three lots. Mr. L. Paggi: Yes, and this person will actually have ownership, rather than right-of-way. Mr. Fanuele: This is a driveway. Mr. Lehigh: And it pre-dates Zoning. Mr. L. Paggi: Yes it does Mr. diPiemo and Mr. Paggi - discussing on the map where the property lines are. Mr. diPiemo: So he's the one giving up the right-of-way. Mr. L. Paggi: Correct '-- Page 5 Minutes of April 9,2002 ~ Mr. Lehigh: Does anybody have any problems - does everybody understand it?
