The proposed bill would update current statutes by empowering county boards of supervisors to adopt regulations for small land subdivisions consisting of 6 to 10 lots or parcels, with each parcel being at least 2 acres and exempt from assured water supply requirements. It would require applicants to submit a small land subdivision report, ensure legal access to each lot, and notify the Arizona Department of Real Estate of any relevant ordinances. Additionally, the bill introduces new definitions for terms related to small land subdivisions and mandates specific disclosures in public reports, enhancing regulatory oversight.

Moreover, the bill modifies existing language to clarify the responsibilities of property owners and subdividers, including the requirement to notify the commissioner of intentions to sell or lease land within a small land subdivision. It establishes civil penalties for violations related to the sale or lease of lots without proper registration and updates definitions to ensure consistency with the new provisions. The bill also replaces outdated legal references and emphasizes compliance with sound attenuation standards near military facilities, thereby modernizing and clarifying the legal framework surrounding land subdivision and water supply regulations.
