The proposed bill would update current statutes by allowing county boards of supervisors to adopt regulations for small land subdivisions consisting of 6 to 10 lots or parcels, specifically for parcels that are two acres or larger and not subject to assured water supply requirements. This new provision would require applicants to submit a public report and ensure legal access to each lot, while also mandating counties to notify the Arizona Department of Real Estate of any related ordinances. Additionally, the bill introduces new definitions and expands the liability of subdividers for misrepresentations in public reports, along with establishing civil penalties for violations related to the sale or lease of lots without proper registration.
Moreover, the bill modifies existing language to clarify that developers must submit plans for water supply adequacy before recording the plat, including for small land subdivisions. It also streamlines the statutes by removing outdated references and clarifying definitions related to water supply adequacy. Overall, these updates aim to enhance transparency, accountability, and regulatory compliance in the subdivision process while providing counties with greater authority to manage land use effectively.
