The answer depends on multiple factors. First, you will need to check the zoning for the property to determine the required lot widths, minimum lot area, and setbacks for your property. Subdivision applications are subject to the approval of the Planning Commission, who may consider other factors, including potential development impact and historic development pattern in the area. For more information, call 404-669-8269.

A Preliminary Plat is a complex property survey that is used in determining the suitability of a lot for subdivision. Consideration of a Preliminary Plat will also include zoning compliance, historic development pattern compatibility, and potential environmental impact on neighboring properties. A Preliminary Plat must include the following: - The proposed subdivision name and location, the name and address of the owner or owners, and the name of the designer of the plat who shall be a state-registered engineer or surveyor. - Date, approximate north point and graphic scale. - The location of existing and platted property lines, streets, buildings, watercourses, railroads, sewers, bridges, culverts, drain pipes, water mains and any public utility easements, the present zoning classification, if any, both on the land to be subdivided and on the adjoining land; and the names of adjoining property owners or subdivisions. - Plans of proposed underground utility layouts (including sewers, water and electricity) showing feasible connections to the existing or any proposed utility systems. - The names, locations, widths and other dimensions of proposed streets, alleys, easements, parks and other open spaces, reservations, lot lines and utilities. - Contours at vertical intervals of not more than five feet when specifically not required by the planning commission. - The acreage of the land to be subdivided. - Location sketch map or city map showing relationship of subdivision site to area.

A Final Plat is a legally binding document, once approved by the Hapeville Planning Commission, and recorded with Fulton County Superior Court, legally establishes a new lot or subdivision of an existing lot. For consideration, the Final Plat shall include the following information:
- The lines of all streets and roads, alley lines, lot lines, building setback lines, lots numbered in numerical order, house numbers, reservations, easements and any areas to be dedicated to public use or sites for other than residential use with notes stating their purpose and any limitations. - Sufficient data to determine readily and reproduce on the ground the location, bearing and length of every street line, lot line, boundary line, block line and building line, whether curved or straight, and including true north point. This shall include the radius, central angle and tangent distance for the centerline of curved streets and curved property lines that are not the boundary of curved streets. - All dimensions to the nearest 100th of a foot and angles to the nearest minutes. - Location and description of monuments. - The names and locations of adjoining subdivisions and streets and the location and ownership of adjoining unsubdivided property. - Date, title, name and location of subdivision, graphic scale and true north point.
|
|
|
If the subdivision application is for properties whereby no public improvements or public dedications of roads, utilities, easements, or right-of-ways are included, then the applicant may file for Preliminary and Final Plat simultaneously. The applicant will be required to submit all necessary information on a consolidated preliminary and Final Plat as indicated on the submittal checklist for each application. Although the consolidation of the Preliminary and Final Plat may save the applicant an extra application cycle, both Preliminary and Final Plat fees still apply.
