There were 12 land plots in total, 20 hundred square meters each. After that Streltsov organized forging of corresponding extracts from registers. He signed the extracts and affixed the seal of the rural settlement, as well as issued a decision to label the lands Based on these documents, Koveshnikova registered them in cadastral office and assigned cadastral numbers to the land plots.
