And you think that the solution to having to deal with other people making claims about your property is to just fully cede the jurisdiction of them?

		I am by no means a fan of JOAS in general but things like the maintenance of private roads including winter plowing do need to be dealt with and while a couple of neighbors can probably get agreements drawn up for “only” $10K each, that only goes so far if more people are involved.
