HI BOBBI

If I am correct - Vt statutes state that Town Clerk is to record
what she has received - as we are not lawyers, we cannot make
the decision as to record or not to record. I would have him
immediately prepare an addendum page to the document, referencing
an error and record immediately after the erroneous document.
A document is considered to be recorded when we receive same
time and date stamp it in. Any corrections must be in the form of a
new document. Corrective Deed
Perhaps Deb Markowitz is the best one to ask.
I just had one that had the incorrect boundry descriptions
on it - so the attorney prepared a new description page
correcting same and gave it to me the following day.
I told him about the error and that the corrective deed
would not immediately follow the other document since
there were others received in the interim.
Good  question

Have a great weekend (I get to do site visits)  and
prepare for the next Tuesday BCA appeal  hearings.
Haven't even thought about  "the great  purge of the
checklist"!  Not high on my priority list.
Water emergency in town, phone ringing off the hook
BCA appeals, have to get Tax bills out before Sept l0
but you know that's what keeps us young - SURE
