Davis WINS! Court finds Osborn responsible

Yes, Rockingham Superior Court Judge, John Lewis, handed don his decision today. In the 13page Order, he States that the Osborns "have no property rights" to the Right of Way across Mrs. Davis land, as Maggie has so often claimed.

Judge Lewis further stated that the Osborn's trespassed upon Mrs. Davis' land, and diminished it's value with their "negligent excavating and cutting of trees". The Court also recognized Mrs. Davis' attempts to stop this effective theft of her land, by proscription, by asking Mrs. Osborn to stop, which Maggie not so kindly dismissed. The Court also stated that this WAS a claim for which enhanced damages, for the market value of the trees could be awarded, but he failed to do so, as Mrs. Osborn did not seem to have any idea of the exact number, type or size of trees removed, nor could Mrs. Davis Prove what existed before the Osborn's wanton destruction commenced.

Mrs. Davis has the right to do anything she wishes with the Osborns illegal driveway. The Court also enjoined the Osborns from using the driveway whether Mrs. Davis bars it or not. Continued use of this driveway on the part of the Osborns could result in trespassing charges.

This decision creates a dilemma for the town. Normally for the size lot, and location up on Valcat ln. a permit would only be issued to build a 1,400 sq.ft. home with a sprinkler system. The Osborns were granted a variance on the condition that they had direct access to Chase Island rd. to build a 2,600 sq.ft. house, with a sprinkler system. After obtaining that variance, by submitting plans to that effect, the Osborn's apparently had the Architectural firm of Silverlake Assoc. design a home of over 4,000 sq.ft. which NOW stands upon this site. This is acknowledged by the town, which states a 4,000 sq.ft. home on their tax card.

The Town has obtained an eviction Order for the Osborn's home due to their defiance in adhering to the building permit to which they agreed. The Osborn's are attempting to appeal the amount of the fine and attornies fees to the Supreme Court. Now the Town which has fined and Ordered Mr. Mason to tear down the overbuilt portion of his home, just around the corner from the Osborns, is now faced with a home that does NOT have a sprinkler system, and is overbuilt by 2,800 sq.ft.

Now that the Osborns no longer have access to the road that allowed them to overbuild, nor do they have a sprinkler system, to satisfy their building permit.

This leaves the town to decide if they Order Osborns to tear down the overbuilt portion of their home as they have done to Mr. Mason. or do they simply refuse to enforce zoning ordinances for anybody.

"Oh what tangled webs we weave, when first we set out to deceive"

Still see the Osborns leaving their home in the morning. So much for eviction. The town would never have the guts to have the Osborns tear down their home. The lake is just stuck with another overbuilt McMansion that is not the most attractive structure.

Congratulations on getting your property back Mrs Davis. You stood and fought for your land and your rights and won. You are a great lady. I admire your courage. You refused to be bullied. I admire and respect what you did.

You are a great lady!

Did anyone else see last night's eagle tribune police report for Plaistow?

Anonymous said...

Good for Mrs. Davis, she prevailed in getting her land back. However the statement about the towns involvement is false. The access to the Osborn lot had nothing to do with the size of the house or granting of the variance. This was a civil matter.

You can find the facts in the minutes on the ZBA web site. Do your homework before you report.

Anonymous said...

It is my opinion the BOS should deal with all citizens equally under the law. It the house is larger than the permit granted, then the house size must be adjusted back. If the driveway is not legally theirs and they used that to warrant a larger home, it seems logical to adjust the size of the home downward once again.

What is important here and it is very important: The laws must be applied equally by the BOS to all citizens of Atkinson with no favoritism whatsoever. Mrs. Osborn was a member of the ZBA zoning board at the time. That makes it even more of a problem if the BOS doesn't enforce the law.

Anonymous said...

What are you talking about. Please get the fact before you comment. This has nothing to do with the ZBA. Can you site the law you are referring to?

Anonymous said...

The ZBA didn't want Mrs. Osborn on the Board. That was Jack's doing. The Chairman tried to have her removed.

Anonymous said...

All the laws, rules, RSAs must be enforced in the town. Favoritism should play no part. If a home is built larger than the permit, the BOS must take prompt and swift action to correct the violation. It is a matter of integrity and honesty as well.

That is only MY opinion? I hope not.

ET/police log March 23rd; Warrant arrest: Mark Acciard, 49, 6 Christine Drive, Atkinson. charges not listed, 12:19 p.m. copy available at PDC

MAcciard said...

!0:09, I think what is being referred to, is the fact that the Osborns were granted a variance to build to 2,600 sq.ft. and they instead built a 4,000+sq.ft. house. Mr. Mason overbuilt his home as well, and the town took him to Court, and won, ordering him to tear down the portion in excess of his building permit, and assessing him a couple hundred thousand in rolling fines as well.

This same situation now exists with the Osborn home.

I would guess that is what the poster is talking about.

MAcciard said...

11:13, Exposed for what, pray tell?

No, I am not. I declined my write in appointment to the School District budget committee.

As for the "arrest" I went to Plaistow PD to pick up my front license plate which had fallen off my car at Timberlane, and was kindly informed that a Derry never received the money I mailed in to pay for an inspection sticker ticket.

I paid it. and went on my way.

No ethics issue there, try again.

MAccaird: Mason and Osborn were very different violations. One was built without a permit and setback violation. A fine was assessed along with removal of addition. The other a building code violation and code enforcement violation. A fine assessed and building violation enforced.

What did the town miss?

Anonymous said...

Didn't Osborn also violate set back to the lake and also was not permitted to build that size house.

It seems worse to me than the Mason case, especially since Mason did not roll over his neighbors and violate their land, stress them out for more than a year.

Anonymous said...

Anony.2:04, those are not town claims, they are false blog claims. All records are available at the town hall, for those who want to be well informed. No set back violations. The Osborn home did not impose on any other neighbor. The Davis suit was the Right of Way that belongs to Davis and Orlando. Has nothing to do with the house.

Mason couldn't meet set back from their neighbors, and was a bigger threat to neighbors. That is why removal is being enforced.

All of the above is available in the building department.

Anonymous said...

Read what Mark wrote earlier:

"..Derry never received the money I mailed in to pay for an inspection sticker ticket."

This is nothing to do with where he lives. "Derry" can only mean "Derry District Court." He was driving his car and got pulled over for an expired or missing inspection sticker. He got a ticket and mailed his fine to the court that handles traffic violations for that town. It could have been Derry, but it might have been Londonderry, Chester or Sandown, as the Derry District Court handles traffic tickets for those towns. It's nothing to do with where he lives and everything to do with where he got pulled over.

Based on this there is no reason to believe that he doesn't live in Atkinson.

There is such hatred in this town and I am really tired of it. No wonder that no one wants to volunteer for anything and keeps their distance from the town officials. This is a disgrace!

I also have to add that the town reaps what it sows. They target people, deny services, openly exhibit bias and hatred toward selected residents.

We got rid of a few bad apples but we have a few more to contend with now. They are making all kinds of back dorr deals and plots against others and this has got to stop. If it doesn't, we are all in for more lawsutis and turmoil and disgrace.

I thought they settled the recent lawsuits and just shook hands and walked away.

MAcciard said...

That's funny. The AG's office tells me that I am still an Atkinson resident, as I have been for 44 years including the 17 years spent traveling around the world with the USAF.

As for the know it all telling the town different, Frank, My home, cars, trucks and business are all in Atkinson, all my taxes are paid to Atkinson. I am neither living owning, leasing, or registered to vote anywhere else.

Thanks to our town officials, and school district officials which my questions have pissed off, I have had to prove this to the AG's office twice in the last year.

As most of you know, My wife and kids moved to Derry after someone vandalized my home and car. A high price to pay for telling the truth about a corrupt town official, but that evidently is what my home town has turned into.

And those of you who have supported, assisted, enabled, and otherwise encouraged, either directly or indirectly these despicable acts should be ashamed of yourselves.

But in Atkinson, political loyalty trumps truth.

Anonymous said...

You never answered the question Mark. Where do you sleep at night? Are you implying you are spending your nights in Atkinson and that you and your wife are separated? Are you implying that you are not renting your house on Christine? Something sounds fishy about your claim.

MAcciard said...

To 8:38; There was a settlement offer, a mutual release of claims, that the town's attornies wanted to do in steps as the myriad parties agreed. The Plaintiffs signed settlement with Phil Consentino, thinking that the rest of the parties were days away from signing. After Phil signed the Selectmen told the Attornies being paid by the towns insurance co. they would not continue with the resolution. This, from my understanding, was what led to the town's insurer dropping coverage, and the town resolving to hire new counsel.

This new counsel is also representing Frank Polito in his personal lawsuit against Artus/Brownfield et. al. Claiming that their lawsuit about his 91-A violations at deliberative session were frivolous.

So, We have a release against the Chief obtained by honest brokering renegged upon by the selectmen, who are, once again, willing to commit our taxpayer dollars to defending the indefensible, and paying the personal legal fees of a former town official.

Wish they would have paid my legal expenses when I WON against the town/chief four times.

Well, my faith has never been in the selctmen, especially snake eyes, or should I say toad face. The town is funding a lawsuit with two different lawyers to represent Polito, no longer an official, Polito started the mess at session and he is so damned hot headed (per Bennit) that he'll never give up.

Thanks Frank. Surprised to be alone?

Can we please get back to the comments on this article, and not deviate about certain people? Anyway hip hip hooray for Davis win against her neighbor. I dont understand how, or why Osborn's would continue to fight the town, they need to eat the costs, do what is needed in order for the family to move back in. I do agree, that matters have to be dealt with by the town, in regards to the size home that is built, besides a sprinkler system. The town needs to prove to its taxpayers it means business, nobody better screw around anymore. A similiar case happened in Salem on Arlington Lake, and that Town showed it meant business. It wasn't a teardown, but, land had to be rebuilt, and fined. Also if I were the neighbor who is supposed to tear down their addition, I would consult an attorney on their next step, its still "Not Fair" anyway you look at it. You must treat all the same.

Sure is unfortunate that no one

This reminds me of when Jack and Phil asked Frank to sue the Town he moderated for over fire hydrant Boyle was giving to the town behind the Academy.

Frank was so smug, and the court threw it out!

Anonymous said...

I do not think the Town should be paying the legal bill for Polito. He started the mess at the meeting and he should pay. I hear the insurance company is not representing them in this because they did not settle when it was reasonable to do so.

I'd love it if someone would go into the monday meeting and ask who is paying this bill.

I meant eat the costs of getting the home to have occupancy, I didn't know they did not move out. Why isn't the town taking more action and more fines, if this is the case. That's more money that would be due back to the taxpayers. Of course, lets see if they will even pursue collection of these funds.

Why did the town grant anyone a building permit on what was obviously not what the property owner thought it was? I doubt anyone would spend hundreds of thousands building a house knowing they didn't have the access claimed and damned the torpedoes.

The ZBA did not do its diligence in granting a variance. Isn't the ZBA's job to ensure representations regarding deeds, legal descriptions, surveys and other important, relevant FACTUAL information are reviewed in detail BEFORE they allow a variance and the town grants a building permit? Did the ZBA make a legal opinion on the access without town counsel opinion?

Did the ZBA just take the Osborns word for it? I don't understand how the variance and building permit were ever issued in the first place. Blame the Osbournes all you want and it sounds like they went too far. Seems they never should;ve gotten a permit to begin with if someone did their homework. But everyone wants to avoid this question and blame the Osbornes. I have no doubt they are in the wrong per the court. But WHO approved their plans? Why weren't they stopped by the inspection process along the way? The town can cry victory now but it looks like the fight should have never begun if the job was done right up front. WELL ZBA?

Anonymous said...

The ZBA, Osborns, Polito and selectmen were in collusion to steal Mrs. Davis's land. Polito helped Osborn’s before and did it for a third time. That’s the only plausible explanation for it.

No need for zoning regulations when they are not enforced equally. It’s not like Polito wasn’t warned that the Osborn’s didn’t own Davis land, right?

Zoning regulations are nothing more than a license to steal and to punish people who are presumed to be an enemy of those in power.

So much for honorable people running our town.

The 2010 Town Reports are in Town Hall FOR THE ASKING.

How many people will go to Town Hall to register a car, pay taxes, etc., without knowing that the Town Reports are available only to those who know to ask for a copy?

That's not right. A stack of those Town Reports should be placed on the glass counter near the entrance so that everyone who uses Town Hall can see them and pick up a copy.

It was bad enough that the Selectmen violated NH law by not
providing everyone a copy before
annual town meeting. Now, they're
not readily making them available
to ordinary citizens who can only
get a copy if they ask for one.

ZBA doesn't issue permits. Only variances. But you need the variance to get the permit in the Osborns case. One can't occur without the other. No variance for what they applied for, no building permit.

You can blame it on the Osborns for plowing ahead but can't ignore the town should never have issued the variance.

Had ZBA done its homework and learned the FACTS and checked with Town Counsel, no variance would have been granted (thus no building permit) and the entire Osborn matter would have been avoided.

What say you Mr Know It All?

Anonymous said...

I agree.

Anonymous said...

Yes but the ZBA is not obligated to issue variances, either.

When someone is asking for a variance, that involves building a driveway, and their neighbor comes in and says you can't build that across my land, and the person building the driveway says yes I can, Wouldn't it behoove the ZBA to say, tell you what, Maggie, you show us that you own the land, and we will grant your variance?

Does anyone know if there is a deadline for the Osborns to comply with the judge's order for them to obtain occupancy?

Also, Mason's timeframe for tearing down his illegal addition is coming up in April. It's still there.

Anonymous said...

The short answer is that the ZBA is not a land court. The Davis-Osborn dispute was a civil matter and the ZBA had no place in that dispute.

An applicant came in to the ZBA for a variance making certain representations. The ZBA does not go to the County Clerk to research deeds and the like to validate applicant claims. It rules on the applicant's representations (and if those representations are knowingly false, the applicant is at risk of subsequent enforcement actions.)

The Osborns are the ones who acted improperly... and the courts have shown that time and again.

Justice moves slowly... but it appears the Osborns will ultimately pay the price.

Anonymous said...

The ZBA TURNED this into a civil matter KNOWING FULL WELL that the Osborn's didn't own the ROW. They allowed them to build a bigger house based on OSBORN lies, at Carol Davis's expense. The TOWN caused the lawsuit through Polito's friendship with Osborn and never informing Mrs. Davis as an abutter.

Remember that Mrs. Osborn was on the zba board at time of aproval.

Anyone see anythig wrong with the process, and how corruption was involved?

Anyone see how the process needs to be changed to protect the innocent, as compared to damageing another taxpayer?

Does anyone believe the selectmen will make the neccesary change, as compared to keeping their power over the innocent taxpayer?

Corruption and POWER is the root of all the problems in this town. We need to do something about it now, or another taxpayer will be hurt in the future. Do you really want that to happen to you? Do you want to be next to suffer the attacks of the likes of Consentino, Sapia, Childs, Polito, Friel, Sullivian?

If not.............do something about the Atkinson Mafia NOW!

The next lawsuit brought against the town might be yours!

God bless Carol Davis for standing up for her rights. It came for a price that you might not be able to afford, while the Town stood by and did nothing but nod their bobble heads.

Anonymous said...

Let me put it to you a different way, though I do not expect you to understand.

The ZBA did not approve or endorse the driveway over Davis land. They merely said that the Fire Department must be satisfied. That could have taken many forms (including sprinkling).

The ZBA had no knowledge that the applicant would do what they did, and the ZBA did not sanction the Osborns to do what they did. The record clearly shows the ZBA would (properly) take no position on the driveway matter when it was proffered.

All you haters will never be swayed, but if some readers are here trying to form an informed opinion, the courts have ruled convincingly that the Osborns are the violators here, the ZBA properly kept out of it.
