have 14/15ths title. The plan is necessary for the owners to pursue complete ownership of the
parcel in question. Attorney Elizabeth McGlynn represents the owners and explains the need for
the plan to the Board.

which title is presently in dispute before the Board endorses it. MeGlynn agrees to modify the
plan as suggested.
