Thomas Way, R.O.W.

A couple years back at least 50 Nero Lane people came to a Board Meeting to voice their opinion on a ROW that the township said they owned on Thomas Way just off of Nero. This ROW was packed between two homes, 66′ wide by about 140′ long. It was connecting Thomas Way with a forty owned by a third party to the west. It was a small wooded parcel sitting there not being used (ever). Here is where the problem starts, to the west of the third party forty was a development that now bought that original forty and wants that ROW to have easy access to the HWY.
Years ago that strip of land could have been divided up between the two homeowners to the N and S. But the Town’s intention was to hand it over to the Developers for whatever reason. In the mean time it has costed the Nero people (mainly one couple) thousands of dollars and hours to try to get this ROW closed down to keep away all the extra traffic from accessing Thomas Way, through Nero to the HWY.

The current Town Board which consists of, Elmer Ragen, Dave Pribyl and Douglas Allen, could have fixed this problem a long time ago if they wanted to with almost no cost to the people.

Its not too late, all the Nero people have to do is ask!!

Frank Nowak who is currently running for Town Chairperson ” and ” Supervisor, spent countless hours at the Courthouse and a Title Company trying to figure out who legally owns this strip of Land. Frank say’s (after much research) the original Developer of Thomas Way (King Estates with about 10 lots abandoned the strip of land over 20 years ago). The town was never deeded this property. So it now goes equally to the property owners to the north and south of said strip of land. No one is able to prove Frank wrong.

You would think that our current Town Board would at least try.
