A subdivision plat is a map or legal instrument that divides land into lots or parcels and may show streets, easements, and related features. Review, approval, and recording requirements are set by local authorities. The plat's effect depends on applicable law and recorded documents. Surveyors and land professionals prepare work within their licensed scope.
Why it matters for owners
Platting can be a key approval and recording milestone. Confirm agency requirements, dependencies, and responsible parties.
