Included would be a scale model of the plans. After discussion, a motion was made by Joe Harlacher, that the council approve the Park Committee's recommendation and in addition that the landscape architects present their recommendations on how the road ends of the town should ultimately be developed, thus making them an intregal part of the recreational plans for the Town.

The Park Committee reported on their walk down to this Toad end, stating that the stakes placed there recently by the Town were visible and that it is understood that they are located in the middle of the right of way -- the town owning 15 feet on each side. Mr. John Kepper, owner, of the property to the north, has constructed a planting area surrounded by a rock border in what the town considers their right of way. The Park Committee members had a conversation with Mr. Kepper at the time of their visit to the road end and Mr. Kepper explained that he and his Title :Insurance Company feel the land belongs to him. Mr. Roberts, at this meeting, stated that the Town considers the road end public property and that the Town should determine where the road actually is located. Mr. Roberts stated he would estimate that if the town becomes involved in litigation on this matter, the attorney's fees could be $2500 or less. He urged the obtaining of an aerial map showing location of the road end as it was located years ago. After discussion, a motion was made by Joe Harlacher that the Town ATtorney take action to establish the Town's ownership of the road end of N.
