A draftsman gave me a quote which included price for PLANS OF SUBDIVISION which he didn't explain much. All he said was the land surveyor needs these plans. 1. What things are actually shown on these plans and how many different views/pages are there (for 2 units) ? 2. Is there any engineer involved? If so who? 3. Does anyone has full list of docs and names of plans required from planning permit, building and subdivision stage? This is my first project. Please forgive my ignorance. Thanks! Re: Plans of subdivision 2Feb 17, 2011 6:07 am The plan of subdivision is what's registered at the Titles Office and leads to the creation of new, separate titles. It generally shows the boundaries of the subdivided lots, the dimensions, any easements and so on. It would require a land surveyor....not sure about an engineer. You don't say which state you're in, but your local Titles Office should have info on the subdivsion procedure somewhere on its website.
