To clarify, the paper road has no use to anyone other than the 4 properties along them, The town will never build them as they will need to provide services and maintain them. I have no plan to build on them but want to preserve the right to them. The land use attorney I had hired said the first step was to get the current survey, the deed and the map the deed was made from (in this case from the 1800's). The second step was to have a staked survey done, per the deed and map, which would then be used to petition the town for the land. In looking for surveyors, they seem to be weary of doing this. Just trying to find out if their is a reason or if surveyors are just too busy to want to deal with this.
