A lot split evaluation is required to receive approval to split land from a parcel and create a new buildable lot(s) where sanitary sewer is not available. The evaluation will make sure that the existing lot and proposed lot(s) are able to support a sewage treatment system (STS) and replacement area.
Common examples of lot splits are:
- Splitting a parcel that is vacant to create additional vacant lots
- Splitting a parcel with an existing home to create additional vacant lots
- Two or more parcels with existing homes redistributing land
Requirements for approval of a lot split can vary depending on the existing parcels, soils, property features, and proposed site plan. It is highly recommended that you contact our office at 330.926.5600 to discuss the project prior to submitting the application(s).
A Lot Split Evaluation Application will need to be submitted for EACH parcel affected (existing and proposed). Each proposed parcel must have an address assigned. Please read the application instructions for more details.
