There are specific Land
Development Code exemptions which may allow property owners to divide, convey, or adjust
property boundaries without meeting all the requirements of the site and development review
regulations. Although these situations are not classified as a 'subdivision' by
definition, the developer or land owner must comply with all other applicable land use
ordinances.
Processing Requirements for
Exempt Subdivisions:
1. Each request for an exemption
subject to Leon County Code shall be originated with the Development Services Division,
Department of Growth and Environmental Management. A Permitted Use Verification
(PUV) is required to determine eligibility for many of the exempt processes.
Contact Development Services for more information at 850-606-1300.
2. All questions on
the application form must be completed. Proof of ownership or interest must be provided in
the form of a recorded deed or other legal instrument of record. If you are not the legal
owner, a written power of attorney must be submitted authorizing you to act as applicant on
behalf of the legal property owner.
