BEFORE YOU STRAIGHTEN THE LINE
It is not unusual for prop ertylines to have all kinds of crazy zig zags in them. If you happen to be a “neat-freak,' would it be worth your while to take the zig-zags out and replace them with straight lines? Before you make this move, there are a number of factors to consider.
Is there real gain to be realized from straightening the line? For instance, have you lost any portion of the enjoy ment of your property because of the zigs and zags?
Before you spend any money, check the zoning of ad joining parcels to ensure that the straightening is a legal op tion. There may be a valid rea son why the line was placed that way when the land was originaly subdivided. If zoning does not automatically permit the straightening, you'll have to weigh the cost and time effectiveness of appealing to one or more town boards to ask for a hardship variance. Add to this surveying fees and attorney’s fees. Maybe it's better to live with the zig-zags.
