Subdivisions

Subdivisions fall into two categories: a short plat or a long plat. A short plat is a type of subdivision process typically used for dividing a parcel of land into a smaller number of lots—usually no more than four—without the more extensive requirements of a full subdivision. It’s a simplified process that can be faster and less complex than a traditional platting process. A short plat is often used for small-scale developments or land divisions, such as creating a few new residential lots or splitting a larger parcel into a couple of smaller pieces.
