When is a land division review required?
Divide an existing property
Land division reviews are required to divide an existing property to create additional lots for development.
For example, a land division is commonly requested to divide a large residential lot into 2 or 3 lots. Once the land division is complete, new houses can be built on the additional lots.
Move or reconfigure existing lot lines - land division review may not be needed
If you want to move a lot line or reconfigure lot lines between existing legal lots, a land division review is not needed in most cases.
Moving existing lot lines
A property line adjustment ↗ allows for minor changes to the location of existing property lines.
Removing or reconfiguring existing lot lines
A replat ↗ allows for removing or reconfiguring existing lot lines resulting in up to 3 lots.
Other ways land division can happen
- A land division may be combined with a Planned Development Review ↗.
- Some situations may qualify for a Middle Housing Land Division ↗, an expedited process with limited approval standards.
- A final plat review ↗ is required to complete the land division process.
