Belfast Police Chief Mike McFadden,

As documented on my blog www.boycottbelfast.blogspot.com and my you tube channel, PLEASE issue an order of protection against the owners/trust of 23 Seaview Terrace 04915. Sheriff Jeff Trafton, Governor LePage and Wife have blocked me from emailing them. Please inform them of this order of protection. South River Rat Laurie Lee Allen received another threat from 23 Seaview Terrace in video IV, stating he will trespass onto my property and steal my boat. Please issue the protection order effective from the first threat today as documented in the video to Belfast Police and provide all orders and police report to me. Thank You.

Sincerely,
South River Rat Laurie Lee Allen

   Who is this woman? She does not live on Seaview, spying on my yard everyday. She must be one of them. Ew.
    

Implicate and own. Belfast City Hall, John Worth III and wife (Belfast residents) Maine District Court Judge Patricia Worth are the Beflast Mobstah Lobstah's. Owning and destroying all that don't comply. Real estate, lawyers, law enforcement,, businesses, enablers, healthcare, clergy, local-county-state government, the list is endless. First hand accounting for all by one Mom.


6/6/2017

Belfast to Augusta Maine corruption begins below Montana Man's picture.  First hand personal accounting/documenting of corruption, 7 years and counting, do not give up. I thought my children and I had made it out, against all odds, I never gave up. We were mentally beat to hell when we pulled into our new home in 6/2010, no mistakes. My NJ attorney had yet to file the rarely awarded, hotly contested relocation. If denied, I'd be homeless in NJ. Ex would get full custody. After 2 long months and court proceedings, one week before school was beginning, I was awarded relocation.

I did it. We could begin healing in safety and privacy in Belfast, Maine 04915. I knew this was where I wanted to be since 1969 at 8 years old. Dad was a welder and Mom was unemployed (http://boycottbelfast.blogspot.com/p/my-dad-was-a.html ), we did not have any savings and we lived on pocket cash. By chance, we took the scenic tour home from the World's Expo Fair in Canada, Route 1 from Maine back to Exit 9, NJ. By chance, we stopped in Belfast, The Colonial Gables, to sleep.

By glory, Dad and Mom would take a Belfast banker out for a liquid lunch, get a loan for $3700 to buy a gingerbread cottage, fully furnished, 6 miles from Belfast in Bayside, for $3700. We were living in Bayside that day. Dad left us there for the summer and went back to NJ to weld. I'd eventually build my own house in Bayside. To lose it in the divorce to my ex in 2007.

I know many of these people since childhood. All they saw was a crawling Mom, knowing my full history of family abuse and fleecing. An easy mark to sell undisclosed hell with the last of all I had and break my children and me but good (http://boycottbelfast.blogspot.com/p/blog-page_77.html ) 45 years of family corruption, lies and greed- Belfast & Bayside is saturated with the same. Owning many once honest, through implication and fear, they can't get me, I'm simple and true.

Truth, the biggest problem for the Mobstah Lobstah's. One Mom. Nevertheless, I persist.

Let me tell you truth. I began documenting the corruption in 2011 but their Alice in Wonderland tactics, throwing me down rabbit hole after rabbit hole while hurting my children, it has been terrifying.  Earlier blogs are www.belfastbullies.blogspot.com , www.belfastbullies2.blogspot.com , www.belfastbullies3.blogspot.com 

Last year, I created www.04915.blogspot.com to focus on the most corrupt, in power, disgraces to mother's and father's, to all children, to all period. They enjoy kicking the true. They will do it to you too.

Cruising out of the station, saw a beat up camper to the right. Just what I wanted to check out. Exiting left onto Route 1- station sign blocking Montana Man- I spied the red gas container. Then Man. U-turn right and in to fill it up. Said camper was empty. Asked if it could make it to the pump. Yes M'aam. Holding my breath- might have 2 tanks- maybe $300?. Phew, only $75.

Dear Ms. Allen
The Seaview Terrace area is in the Residential 1 zoning district.  Attached is the official zoning map.    My apologies for my error of June 9 in which I stated it was in the Residential 3 zoning district; a short term brain cramp. 
I also note that I sent you email messages back on April 4, 2015 (included a map) and again on May 26, 2015 (included attachments with City zoning standadrs)  in which I noted that the Seaview Terrace area is in the Residential 1 zoning district. 
Further, if you go to the City website, under the Assessor tab and click on aerial maps and property data, you can load a map theme that will identify City zoning for every property in Belfast.  
Again, my apologies for the inadvertent error.

Belfast City Planner Wayne Marshall,

Since City Council voted in zoning in 2014, you have stated that Seaview Terrace is Residential 1 which is what the residents of Seaview Terrace approved. In your email below, you are stating that Seaview Terrace is Residential 3. Belfast tax assessor, Brent Martin has Seaview Terrace listed as Residential 1. The city tax maps effective 2015 also state Seaview Terrace is residential 1.

Please advise if Seaview Terrace is residential 1 or residential 3. If you state that Seaview Terrace is residential 3 then please explain how City Council voted Seaview Terrace in as residential 3.

Subject: June 9 Questions to Tod Rosenberg

Dear Ms. Allen:

You sent an email to Tod Rosenberg, CEO at 11:15 am on June 9 and posed 3 questions to him.  Mr. Rosenberg forwarded your questions to me.  I offer the following responses. 



1.  The zone for Seaview Terrace.  -  Response:   Seaview Terrace is in the Residential 3 zoning district. 

 2. The ordinance resident front yard parking for a single family dwelling with a single driveway.  -   Response.   The Chapter 98 Technical Standards identify parking requirements for single family residences.   Section 98-242 requires that all single family residences have 2 on-site parking spaces (Applies to all zoning districts with exceptions for some areas in the Downtown Commercial zoning district).   Section 98-247, which the City amended in June 2016, identifies where such parking can occur.   I have attached a copy of Section 98-247.      

 3. Resident parking on the City street of Seaview Terrace.   Response.  Seaview Terrace, like most streets in Belfast, does not prohibit on-street parking.   Thus, persons (residents and non-residents) can choose to park vehicles on the street .

Let me know if any questions.

Since I sent you the card with all of your info relied upon for your tax basis, I didn't need to clarify whether by square footage you meant your GLA or acreage. I thought I was helping you by giving you more info, not less. As an aside, the GLA square footage of your home is in the property card

Attached is the deed description in conjunction with the offering prior to your purchase. The assessment on your acreage is at a rounded .35 of an acre, based on the size in the deed, which states it was part of a lot. I don't have the original subdivision plan, but if you bought the partial lot and the original is larger than .35 acres or so, then your title company should look into this. 

This is in response to the 5th request.

Our email thread extended to after hours and I pulled over to respond to you, attempting to guide you to get you the information you sought as quickly as possible as it was not available to me on the side of the road. I had a full schedule yesterday, leaving at 7pm. I am writing you from a conference in Bangor after confirming my assistant forwarded the committed square footage via the property card, which has greater weight than the tax map, which,as stated, is only for guidance.

PS

Your efforts to refuse to state in email the square footage of my property that you are using to bill me for property taxes is wrong.

In your 4/18/2017 email below (see A), you write that the tax maps are not reliable "please don't have too much emphasis on the authority of the tax maps." You write hypothetically of your tax map discrepancies, reconciliations, conflicts, or resolutions yet have not advised me of any discrepancies, reconciliations  or resolutions to my property since my  request to YOU in November 2016 (see B) to reconcile the Belfast Assessor Tax Map deletion of the front and side footage of my property with proof of footage with the 1966 plans recorded in the Waldo County Deeded Registry, with no subdivides or ANY changes to my property legally recorded in the registry since. You refuse to state the assessed square footage of my property, do not advise of any assessing issues to my property,  and tell me that you will contact me with map changes and you have not and that email is right here .  Again advising me to hire an attorney or surveyor for your secret assessed footage of my property.

I am sorry the tax maps haven't made this easier for you but please don't have too much emphasis on the authority of the tax maps. The tax maps are for guidance only. 

The deed history and surveys dictate and the title company will know this. When a tax map discrepancy requires reconciliation, it is not uncommon to have the conflicts omitted in the tax map. Further, April 2015 maps were printed to reflect data we understood to be correct and uncontested as of that date so we don't go back to make changes even if fully resolved thereafter. 

Currently, we aren't budgeting for a tax map update next year so no changes will be made until after April 1, 2018, meaning, probably after commitment in the Fall of 2018. We are looking into digitizing earlier updates but this is not confirmed yet.

Thank you

The 2015 Belfast City Tax Map below for my property #47 is missing 2 measurements of 125 feet frontage and 127.8 side,  confirmed in the 1966 plan, recorded in the Waldo County Deeded registry with no amendments or sub-division to my lot recorded since the 1966 plan per the Waldo County Deeded Registry  on 10/28/2016. Please add these measurements to the Belfast City Tax Map. Every other lot lists the frontage and side except for my lot #47 and the abutting lot #47-A, which also needs to identify the same. Please update the measurements of 125 feet frontage and 127.8 side to my property #47 and confirm today. Thank you.

Your request seems to look for a level of specificity that would be best served by a surveyor as the tax maps are generally for mass valuation, parcel identification and reference purposes. It seems you are seeking something more definitive than tax maps provide. Please advise if you need help locating a surveyor as there are several in the area.

Thank you for responding.  Your response did not include the maps (I copied and pasted your response below) I provided to prove there is no question of the original front and side footage to my property.  The Waldo County Deeded Registry proves that there have been no legal sub divides to my property to change the original front and side footage. There is no question on my property front and side footage.  Please update the measurements of 125 feet frontage and 127.8 side to my property #47 and confirm.

The 2015 Belfast City Tax Map below for my property #47 is missing 2 measurements of 125 feet frontage and 127.8 side,  confirmed in the 1966 plan, recorded in the Waldo County Deeded registry with no amendments or sub-division to my lot recorded since the 1966 plan per the Waldo County Deeded Registry  on 10/28/2016. Please add these measurements to the Belfast City Tax Map. Every other lot lists the frontage and side except for my lot #47 and the abutting lot #47-A, which also needs to identify the same.

Realty of Maine, Timothy Dutch is the listing agent for the abutting lot, 47-A on the 2015 Belfast Tax Map (lot #7 on the original 1966 plan).  The garage on that lot is in violation of  the 20 ft side set back ordinance that was in place when the garage was built by the Caswells and now for sale by Karen Caswell.  As a courtesy, I have included the realtor and Belfast Code Enforcer, Tod Rosenburg is this email.

I am sorry the tax maps haven't made this easier for you but please don't have too much emphasis on the authority of the tax maps. The tax maps are for guidance only. 

The deed history and surveys dictate and the title company will know this. When a tax map discrepancy requires reconciliation, it is not uncommon to have the conflicts omitted in the tax map. Further, April 2015 maps were printed to reflect data we understood to be correct and uncontested as of that date so we don't go back to make changes even if fully resolved thereafter. 

Currently, we aren't budgeting for a tax map update next year so no changes will be made until after April 1, 2018, meaning, probably after commitment in the Fall of 2018. We are looking into digitizing earlier updates but this is not confirmed yet.

Thank you

Brent,

I hope to be putting my house for sale immediately, needing to clear 200k to move.  My title insurance has confirmed the title is clear, the boundaries have never changed from the original 1965-66 plans. This link provides the 1965-66 original plans, a 1990 Good Deeds survey confirming original boundary lines and The Waldo County Deeded Registry proving no subdivide to my property. https://goo.gl/photos/RFPNEpPKKiBbSj6i9

If I cannot sell, I stay. Please advise of any changes to 17 Seaview Terrace. I copied my neighbor (lot 48 on tax map http://www.cityofbelfast.org/DocumentCenter/View/1559 ) because the front and side footage of my property is still not posted even though I gave you all this information and documentation in November 2016.  Your new Map 32 Printed: 3/2/2016 Effective Date: 4/1/2015 appears to give 23 Seaview Terrace more front footage. Looking equal to my 125' frontage. Your new map is missing the footage (every other lot has original footage, and mine has been removed).

Per the original plans and survey, 23 Seaview Terrace, lot 47A and 17 Seaview Terrace, lot 47 per  Map 32 Printed: 3/2/2016 Effective Date: 4/1/2015 must state the front and side frontage. 23 Seaview Terrace is 100 ft front, 17 Seaview Terrace is 125 ft front and 127.8 ft side between 17 and 23 Seaview Terrace.

As it is after hours right now, I can suggest that you look at your tax bill to see the acreage, you can look at the commitment book online, or you can see the new mapping function online under City Departments, then Assessing, then Aerial Maps and Property Data, which will show the property card information, including acreage (or square footage) relied upon, during the off hours.

That change on the tax maps predated my employment as per the 2012 maps; however, given that you are indicating this is a potentially unresolvable matter absent appropriate legal authority, I will be refraining from indicating the boundaries for the time being as tax map updates are not currently being worked on. You should obtain legal counsel for the clarity you seek.

'Veterans at Standing Rock Ask Forgiveness for Military's Crimes Against Native Americans
On the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation in North Dakota, Wes Clark Jr., the son of the retired U.S. Army general and former supreme allied commander of NATO, Wesley Clark Sr., led military veterans in a ceremony Monday to ask forgiveness from Native Americans for the crimes of the U.S. military. Thousands of Native and non-Native veterans have descended on Standing Rock to support the water protectors fighting the $3.8 billion pipeline in recent days. This is Wes Clark Jr.
Wes Clark Jr.: 'We came. We fought you. We took your land. We signed treaties that we broke. We stole minerals from your sacred hills. We blasted the faces of our presidents onto your sacred mountain. And we took still more land. And then we took your children. And then we tried to take your language. We tried to eliminate your language, that God gave you and that the creator gave you. We didn’t respect you. We polluted your earth. We’ve hurt you in so many ways. And we’ve come to say that we are sorry, we are at your service, and we beg for your forgiveness.' End of Quote.

6 ½ years and counting of frightening and shattering power abuse to hurt my children and me for standing against the economic genocide to my property and neighborhood from Belfast City Hall to Augusta, to Maine Health Waldo County General Hospital and Department of Defense, both in collaboration per the Maine Health website announcement in 2011, to implicated players in law enforcement, real estate, the judicial system, media, local TWC service technician, businesses, the RSU71, and community and neighbors.

Below is the most recent corruption involving the taking for economic genocide. The Comprehensive Plan that City Council secretly voted through with sweeping ordinances, zoning, etc. in 2014 through an enormous binder, privy to only the officially corrupt, is still unknown to the public. My repeated requests to officiate the in-town zoning, especially residential and healthcare areas to the City Website zoning areas is still corrupt. Creating another manipulation. On the City Website, click on City Government, hoover over Planning & Code, another box includes Adopted City Zoning Map 2016. Click on that. As of today, at 3:40 pm. that map states it is only for zoning as of May 5, 2015, published March 2016.  http://www.cityofbelfast.org/DocumentCenter/View/1526

Dear Ms. Allen
I went to the Waldo County Registry of Deeds to identify any subdivision plans and any amendments that were recorded for the Wendell McCleod Subdivision for the Seaview Terrace area.  There are only two recorded plans:
1)  1965 plan recorded at Book 6, Page 23.
2)  1966 plan recorded at Book 6, Page 59.
I have attached both plans to this email.  I note that the 1966 plan is consistent with information shown on the City tax map for your property.
As these are the only recorded plans, I am unaware of any other amendments which were approved by the Belfast Planning Board and subsequently recorded.
I hope that this information helps.
Wayne Marshall 


2. Belfast City Tax Assessor Brent Martin

A.  Per your email below, "we have about 12 small changes pending" please advise what these pending changes are.

B. Please correct the City tax map for my property with the missing measurements of 125 feet frontage and 127.8 side per City Planner Wayne Marshall.

The 2015 Belfast City Tax Map below for my property #47 is missing 2 measurements of 125 feet frontage and 127.8 side,  confirmed in the 1966 plan and consistent to date per above email from City Planner Wayne Marshall stating on 11/10/2016,

3. Belfast Code Enforcement Officer Tod Rosenburg 



Please advise of resolution for side set back code violation of 23 Seaview Terrace, it is for sale by Tim Dutch.

Please be advised of 20 ft side set back ordinance violation that was in place when the garage on 23 Seaview Terrace was built.  I am not questioning my boundary line, my house is original to the 1966 plan and adhering to Belfast ordinance of side and front set backs. Furthermore, an easy measurement to prove violation is from the side eaves of my house (17) to the side (23) eaves of the garage. Per ordinance, 20 ft side set back for each, mandating a minimum of 40 ft . There is NOT 40 ft from my eaves to the garage eaves.

Good afternoon:

 I will say the following only one time only. After this I will not address any inquiry as to the location of any private boundary line in the City of Belfast. Sending me emails every week will not change this.
The City of Belfast does not certify the location of any property boundary line period.

 Yes we attempt to note on our tax maps what we think- and we can be wrong- as to what the  various dimensions are- but they are not intended to be representations as to the actual location of boundary lines or guarantees on dimensions on the ground. City tax maps are at best a guide. If anyone wants to know where their property line they should consult a licensed surveyor and possibly an attorney.
So if anyone thinks that their neighbor is impacting their boundary line do not call the City as that is a private issue between two neighbors and should be resolved privately with surveyors and lawyers.
The burden to not build closer to the boundary line than is legally permissible is completely on the property owner. If the City does not certify the location of boundary lines then we can't certify that built buildings or proposed buildings either are or are not in violations of set backs rules. The owner of the property is charged to know where their lines are and the risk is theirs if they make a mistake.

 If anyone thinks that their neighbor built too close to their line then the burden is on them to produce a surveyors finding that supports that allegation. If this information is provided to the City then we would then take that surveyors finding and present it to the neighbor to see if their surveyor agrees or disagrees with the first surveyors finding. It is common for surveyors and lawyers disagree on the boundary line findings. If the City were convinced by survey evidence that a set back violation has occurred it would ultimately be up to the City Council to decide on whether or not- after considering all the  factors they deem relevant - the City should pursue an enforcement action based upon a violation of the zoning rules.
That is all I have to say on the issues raised in these emails.
Joe Slocum

Subject: Fw: 17 & 23 Seaview Terrace, 2nd request 11/,3, 3rd 11/4, 4th 11/10

K Construction, Belfast City Planner Wayne Marshall, Belfast Code Tod Rosenburg , Belfast Tax Assessor Brent Martin and Realty of Maine Tim Dutch,

1. K Construction inspected 23 Seaview Terrace yesterday. They saw my signs and tape informing that the garage on 23 Seaview Terrace was built in violation of Belfast City Code requiring a 20 ft side set back. The garage is in violation because there is not 40 ft between the eaves of abutting property, 17 Seaview Terrace to the garage eves on 23 Seaview Terrace.

2. Belfast City Planner Wayne Marshall- My request was to advise if Belfast City Planning (including Code) "Belfast City Planning  approved any changes/subdivides/variances, etc. to the side property boundary line between 17 & 23 Seaview Terrace from the 1965 plans." Your response " I am unaware of any other amendments which were approved by the Belfast Planning Board and subsequently recorded."   Per your May 2011 email to my request for the history of Seaview Terrace

Dear Ms. Allen:
"The 1966 Plan, and a subsequent 1978 amendment, are the only two documents of record on file in the Registry. " 

The 1978 amendment has been been removed from the Waldo County Deeded Registry completely since my 2011 inquiry. Repeated requests for that 1978 amendment to you and City Manager Joe Slocum were ignored. Now you are telling me that you are unaware of any amendments. 

A. Please advise if Belfast City Planning & Code approved any CHANGES/subdivides/variances, exceptions, anything at all to the side property boundary line between 17 (plan lot 5)& 23 (plan lot 7) Seaview Terrace from the 1966 revised recorded final plan below.




B. Per your May 2011 email to my request for the history of Seaview Terrace  "The 1966 Plan, and a subsequent 1978 amendment, are the only two documents of record on file in the Registry. " The 1978 amendment has been been removed from the Waldo County Deeded Registry completely since my 2011 inquiry. Repeated requests for that 1978 amendment to you and City Manager Joe Slocum were ignored. Now you are telling me that you are unaware of any amendments. 


3. Belfast Tax Assessor Brent Martin-

A. Per your email below, "we have about 12 small changes pending" please advise what these pending changes are.

Laurie,
I responded the first day shortly after receiving your email. Your follow-up came after I'd left for presceduled inspections, which have lasted a day and a half. I am just getting back to the office after a day and a half so please understand that it may take me a day or two to respond.
I will look into whether I'll be adding additional dimensions on the tax maps prior to submitting for the next new tax maps next year. Note, however, when dimensions are in question, assessors may choose to leave them out as the tax maps are not definitive. Remember, these do not carry legal weight.
Also note that these changes are not dynamic so they do not reflect pending changes.  I don't yet know when we'll have a sufficient number of changes to update (we have about 12 small changes pending) but feel free to check in late spring to see if we'll be doing them next year or not and whether I'll be adding those in question after reviewing. As I stated, if you need something more definitive, please consult an attorney or surveyor.
Sincerely
Brent Martin
City Assessor

Brent,

The 2015 Belfast City Tax Map below for my property #47 is missing 2 measurements of 125 feet frontage and 127.8 side,  confirmed in the 1966 plan, recorded in the Waldo County Deeded registry with no amendments or sub-division to my lot recorded since the 1966 plan per the Waldo County Deeded Registry  on 10/28/2016. Please add these measurements to the Belfast City Tax Map. Every other lot lists the frontage and side except for my lot #47 and the abutting lot #47-A, which also needs to identify the same. Please update the measurements of 125 feet frontage and 127.8 side to my property #47 and confirm today. Thank you.  




B. Per your email below where side and front footage for my property, 17 Seaview Terrace (shown on the tax map as 47) by Belfast City Hall has been erased from the tax map, where a Seaview Terrace 1978 amendment Waldo County Deeded record has been erased from record and City Planner Wayne Marshall's memory and the continuing response by Belfast City Hall is with holding and/or removing public documents from records and public access.

Blog readers- included in the above email is City Planner Wayne Marshall's email thread below in the 11/10/2016 post.

11/18/2016

Belfast City Tax Assessor Brent Martin simply has to insert the documented, Waldo County Deeded Registry footage to the tax maps for my property. Why was the frontage and side footage for my property and the abutting property taken off the tax maps, while every other Seaview Terrace property is stated? Because the abutting lot is in violation of side set backs with their garage. My home is original since 1967. That garage is on another lot and was built after my home and does not meet the 20 foot side set back. One corner is almost on my boundary line. Karen Caswell needed to get a variance and clearly did not. Now she is trying to sell another Caswell hell to another, a family trait. With the corruption of real estate agents and Belfast City Hall. Attorneys and surveyors ready and waiting for their next victim of Belfast corruption.

Brent,

Thank you for responding.  Your response did not include the maps (I copied and pasted your response below) I provided to prove there is no question of the original front and side footage to my property.  The Waldo County Deeded Registry proves that there have been no legal sub divides to my property to change the original front and side footage. There is no question on my property front and side footage.  Please update the measurements of 125 feet frontage and 127.8 side to my property #47 and confirm.

The 2015 Belfast City Tax Map below for my property #47 is missing 2 measurements of 125 feet frontage and 127.8 side,  confirmed in the 1966 plan, recorded in the Waldo County Deeded registry with no amendments or sub-division to my lot recorded since the 1966 plan per the Waldo County Deeded Registry  on 10/28/2016. Please add these measurements to the Belfast City Tax Map. Every other lot lists the frontage and side except for my lot #47 and the abutting lot #47-A, which also needs to identify the same.

Realty of Maine, Timothy Dutch is the listing agent for the abutting lot, 47-A on the 2015 Belfast Tax Map (lot #7 on the original 1966 plan).  The garage on that lot is in violation of  the 20 ft side set back ordinance that was in place when the garage was built by the Caswells and now for sale by Karen Caswell.  As a courtesy, I have included the realtor and Belfast Code Enforcer, Tod Rosenburg is this email.

Your request seems to look for a level of specificity that would be best served by a surveyor as the tax maps are generally for mass valuation, parcel identification and reference purposes. It seems you are seeking something more definitive than tax maps provide. Please advise if you need help locating a surveyor as there are several in the area.
Sincerely

Please advise and confirm the footage of each boundary line (front, sides and rear, 4 lines for each property) for 17 (47 on tax map)) Seaview Terrace, 23 (47-A on tax map)Seaview Terrace, 30 (41 on tax map) Seaview Terrace and 40 Seaview Terrace (40-A and 40 on tax map).  Below is the 1966 plan for Seaview Terrace from the Waldo County Deeded Registry, taken on 10/28/2016 . There are No Waldo County Deeded Registry amendments to Seaview Terrace since this 1966 plan. There is no legal subdivision or legal boundary changes recorded for 17 Seaview Terrace or 23 Seaview Terrace since this 1966 plan. The 2015 tax map and 1965 recorded plan reflect different lot sizes on Seaview Terrace and 40-A does not exist on the 1966 plan nor does a legal recorded subdivide in the Waldo County Deeded Registry.

Please advise immediately on the boundary footages requested for 17 and 23 Seaview Terrace.  23 Seaview Terrace is for sale by Karen Caswell. Boundary footage must be reflected in the tax map for 17 and 23 Seaview Terrace.

Sincerely,
Laurie Allen

Ms. Allen
I do not have adequate records in our Department from the date that the subdivision was initially approved until the late 1990's to respond to your question without doing research at the Waldo County Registry of Deeds.  Based on current workloads and scheduled appointments, I likely will not be able to conduct this research until Monday of next week to ensure that I am able to respond to your question with confidence. 
I also note that you could do this same research at the Registry of Deeds to see what, if any amendments, were approved by the Belfast Planning Board that would affect this subdivision.

Belfast City Planner Wayne Marshall,

As stated in this documented link (original 1965 survey by CK Archer for the Wendell MaCleod Housing Development (Seaview Terrace) given to me in 11/2011 by Belfast City Tax Assessor, Bob Whitely. Confirmed as the original plans by City Manager Joe Slocum and stating AFTER he learned that Bob gave it to me.  Slocum stating to the public at the City Council meeting that he had been looking for this original survey for months while never advising me that this plan existed. If I hadn't raided Bob's office unannounced on a hunch, I would have never known of these plans.  Also on the link is the Good Deeds 1994 drawing of a PROPOSED new boundary line between 17 & 23 Seaview Terrace that was not recorded in the Registry of Deeds. In this link I also took a picture of the Registry's index book proving that no recorded subdivision of the 17 & 23 Seaview Terrace Caswell estate exists, confirmed by Registry staff on 10/29/2016). My pictures, Good Deeds document and details are in this link https://goo.gl/photos/RFPNEpPKKiBbSj6i9

This simple inquiry is not difficult nor time consuming. Creating difficulty is the problem. Please respond in email today to this simple inquiry. If you choose to continue stalling, I must continue daily requests to keep all parties informed because 23 Seaview Terrace is for sale and not meeting setback compliance and encroaching onto my private property.  This is the Belfast City Planner's responsibility to resolve and confirm.

For clarity the simple urgent, now 4 business days pending inquiry is:

Please advise if Belfast City Planning approved any changes/subdivides/variances, etc. to the side property boundary line between 17 & 23 Seaview Terrace from the 1965 plans. 23 Seaview Terrace, owner Karen Caswell is listed for sale by Tim Dutch, Realty of Maine. Karen Caswell  is encroaching onto my property and original home of Dr. Caswell.  http://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/23-Seaview-Ter_Belfast_ME_04915_M46866-50723

Dear Ms. Allen
I went to the Waldo County Registry of Deeds to identify any subdivision plans and any amendments that were recorded for the Wendell McCleod Subdivision for the Seaview Terrace area.  There are only two recorded plans:
1)  1965 plan recorded at Book 6, Page 23.
2)  1966 plan recorded at Book 6, Page 59.
I have attached both plans to this email.  I note that the 1966 plan is consistent with information shown on the City tax map for your property.
As these are the only recorded plans, I am unaware of any other amendments which were approved by the Belfast Planning Board and subsequently recorded.
I hope that this information helps.
