Interesting thread. A friend of mine owns the stables, etc. in the below pic, about a mile or so from my farm.
The crude black line I inserted is the old road...the sweeping turn, Breton Beach Road, is the improved turn put in 15 years ago. The old 90% turn was a mess.
The county offered him the land between Camp Maria Road and Solitude Lane following the new turn for survey and admin costs, which he did.
Camp Maria, a Catholic retreat, got, I think, the other parcel.
Granted, that is here and well over a decade ago...the OP's circumstances may be different but it is clearly worth the time and effort he will spend finding out.
