Northampton, MA 01060
Dear Mr. Petroff''.
The DPW has determined that the road bisecting your property is a private way called.
New Street. New Street is not a public way and the City has no claim for public access over. it.
The City would not object to closing off public access to the street. The DPW has very little .
documentation in their files regarding New Street. It appears that the street was created prior to
subdivision regulation in Northampton. Enclosed are copies of deeds and plans obtained by the
DPW, mostly from the Registry of Deeds.
The deeds clearly give you rights of access across and along New Street, but ownership
of the way and rights of access by other abutting lots is unclear. You may want to give the
enclosed documentation to your attorney for further investigation. It may be possible to obtain
agreements from the other abutting owners to relinquish any rights of access or to limit public
access and maintain access for abutting properties only.
I hope this information is helpful. Let me know if there is anything else we can do to
help.
Sincerely,
Teri Anderson,
Economic Development Coordinator
