The proposed bill would update current statutes by introducing a new section, 11-834, which allows county boards of supervisors to adopt regulations for small land subdivisions consisting of 6 to 10 lots or parcels, provided each parcel is at least 2 acres and not subject to assured water supply requirements. This change aims to provide counties with greater flexibility in managing small land subdivisions. Additionally, the bill mandates that applicants submit a "small land subdivision public report," ensures legal access for each lot, and requires counties to notify the Arizona Department of Real Estate of any adopted ordinances or regulations regarding these subdivisions.
Moreover, the bill clarifies definitions related to small land subdivisions, modifies existing disclosure affidavits to include new questions about property location in no-fence districts, and outlines the responsibilities of small land subdividers, including demonstrating adequate water supply. It also establishes civil penalties for violations of the new disclosure requirements, with a maximum penalty of $5,000 for each infraction. The bill aims to streamline the process for small land subdivisions while enhancing oversight and consumer protection, ensuring compliance with updated standards and improving the clarity and organization of existing legal language.
