       ¶  1.  Plaintiffs Dexter and Susan Merritt appeal from a decision of
  the Environmental Board sustaining a jurisdictional opinion that Act 250
  applied to a five-lot subdivision that they sold at public auction.  On
  appeal, plaintiffs argue that the Environmental Board erred because: (1)
  the jurisdictional opinions were issued sua sponte by district
  environmental coordinators in violation of our holding in In re Vt. Verde
