Subject: Allows boards of county commissioners to regulate subdivisions creating 35 to 140 acre parcels. Summary/Major Elements: The act allows boards of county commissioners to regulate subdivisions creating 35 to 140 acre parcels. The act provides an exemption to such subdivision regulation for the creation of not more than 10 parcels over 35 acres created from any parcel existing on July 1, 2008. Persons creating an exempted parcel must still comply with certain requirements to claim the exemption. For non-exempted lands, the act provides that a board may require any or all of certain specified information with an application for a subdivision permit for a subdivision creating parcels 35 to 140 acres in size. A subdivider obtaining a permit under this act must obtain review and recommendations from the local conservation district regarding soil suitability, erosion control, sedimentation and flooding problems. The subdivider must also meet other notification and other requirements. The act does not apply to sale or disposition of lands that were developed and promoted prior to July 1, 2008. The act requires the filing of a notice with the county clerk when any subdivided land is sold pursuant to a contract for deed. Comment: Final action on this bill was not taken at the time this summary was prepared. Should changes be made to the bill upon final passage, an updated summary will be transmitted to all legislators.

Why they voted this way

Additionally, replacing 'survey plat' with 'legal description or recordable survey' resolved confusion over terminology while still providing assessors with needed property information.
