Subdivision Administration

Applications  |   FAQ's  |   Subdivision Fees  |   Subdivision Regulations

The primary role of the Subdivision Administration section is to provide consultation services for landowners, review new preliminary subdivision plans, and determine compliance with Regulations and other adopted plans, coordinate cross-agency review; prepare maps and staff reports for Planning Commission meetings, review minor subdivision (lot splits) for compliance with Subdivision Regulations, and prepare addresses for all property in the unincorporated Hamilton County and some incorporated jurisdictions.

Subdivisions are categorized as major or minor. A major subdivision is a division of an original parcel into 6 or more lots and usually involves improvements such as sewer, water, and streets. The plans for a major subdivision must be reviewed and approved by many Hamilton County departments or agencies that oversee the construction of the improvements. The major subdivision must be platted with lots identified with lot numbers. A minor subdivision is a division of 5 lots or less that does not involve any new streets or other public improvements. This type of subdivision is approved administratively by stamping the deeds prior to transfer. No plat is required and the lots are identified by their legal description. All plans are kept on file in the office of the Regional Planning Commission and are available for viewing during regular office hours.
