I am not sure of the exact origin, but Act 250 declared that all contiguous
land in one ownership is one parcel, regardless of how the deeds read. That
has been somewhat modified by court decisions, but the law still stands.

Mu understanding is that if the land is contiguous and is owned by
the "exact" same person then it must be considered as one
parcel. Maybe this has a connection to the $$$ per parcel the state sends
us to maintain the grand list???? Less parcels, less $$ the town
receives.

lots
Is there a state law that demands that
adjacent lots, owned by the same person, must be condensed under one SPAN # for
purposes of assessment and taxation? Or is the discretion of the lister?
