An engineer can go to the town clerk's office and find a survey map on record, then make a plan showing proposed work, which would allow for permits to be obtained. My question would be to see if the property's actual boundary was marked out on the ground by a surveyor. If it has been, I don't see why people are complaining, and from the "news" articles I've read there is no mention of the boundary being marked out. Again, I am not familiar with Rhode Island's boundary laws, or the town of Westerly's codes, setback lines, etc. So I am only speaking from what I know about properties and typical rules/limitations for improvements. I also think if it wasn't a celebrity this likely wouldn't be much of a story.
