PLAT APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
The plat, plat application, owner notification certification and the filing fee make up the plat application packet.
Per Subdivision Ordinance, all of these items, prepared as instructed, must be received before the application
can be considered “filed” and proceed through the platting process.
Plat: The Subdivision Ordinance is provided with the Plat Application to provide guidance and instruction for
the surveyor’s use in preparing a plat to be submitted to the City of Rollingwood. Please encourage
the surveyor to incorporate the requirements listed in 105-26. The Subdivision Submittal Requirements
Checklist also provides additional information for preparation of the Plat, as well as a checklist to ensure all
required documents are submitted.
Plat application:

platting process. Enter information about the plat, owner, professional(s) who prepared the plat and
the Primary Contact who can be any one of these or another person appointed by the owner.
Page 2 is the Owner’s Acknowledgment form. Ask the surveyor to complete this form. It requires
owner(s) name and signature(s) which must be notarized. By this signature, the owner is authorizing
the plat application as well as the Primary Contact entered on page 1 of the application. The form is to
be signed and sealed at the bottom of the page by the professional who prepared the plat.
