These “side” issues include such matters as resolving substandard access to the public road and meeting bulk zoning regulations such as lot width and area. A Boundary Line Adjustment, then, is an Administrative action by the city or county planning authority. In contrast, a Boundary Line Agreement is a judicial action.

The agreed-boundary doctrine is a principle used by adjacent landowners to resolve uncertainties over land boundaries by permanently fixing the boundaries through an agreement. This means that owners of contiguous land can agree on the boundary between their parcels, as long as certain conditions are met.
Boundary lines help determine the extent of a property and its legal ownership. Specifically, these lines define a property's physical limits and help prevent conflicts between neighboring property owners.
A boundary line agreement is a legally binding document that sets clear boundaries between neighboring properties, providing certainty and preventing conflicts.
A boundary line agreement is a written document between abutting landowners which first identifies their common boundary as being “ambiguous”, “lost” or “uncertain” and secondly describes an agreed to boundary line that is certain.
You and your neighbour can create a 'boundary agreement' to record: the boundary between 2 properties. who's responsible for maintaining a hedge, wall, tree or fence between 2 properties.
First let's clear up the age old myth of; “Each home owner is responsible for maintaining the fence on the left-hand side, as you look at the property from the road”. This is FICTION. There is no general rule about whether you own the fence on the left or the fence on the right of your property.
