Definitions (Amesbury Rental Property)
Operative Text
For the purposes of this article, the following terms shall have the meanings indicated: PARCEL A unit of real property as defined by the Board of Assessors under the deed for the property and shall include a condominium unit.
Section 376-13 of Amesbury's Code of Bylaws (CH. 376) establishes the working definition of 'parcel' for the purposes of the article in which it appears. Under this definition, a parcel is a unit of real property as recognized by the Board of Assessors based on the property's deed, and the definition explicitly extends to condominium units. This definitional provision shapes how other sections of the article are interpreted and applied.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers operating under CH. 376 should be aware that § 376-13 defines 'parcel' by reference to the Board of Assessors' deed-based classifications, meaning each assessor-recognized unit—including individual condominium units—may be treated as a distinct parcel for purposes of the article. Operators managing condominium properties should understand that each unit can stand alone as a parcel under this framework. Staying current with how the Board of Assessors classifies a given property helps ensure accurate compliance with the broader article.

Section 376-13 of CH. 376 is relevant to tenants because it establishes that the protections or requirements in the surrounding article apply on a parcel-by-parcel basis, with condominium units counting as their own parcels. Tenants living in condominiums should be aware that their individual unit may be treated as a distinct parcel under this definition. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Amesbury's bylaws can help explain how this definition affects rights under the broader article.
