Parcel Legal Modifications (Splits/Combines)

Modifications to a parcel's legal description can occur due to sales, development, plats, annexations, or other legal actions that affect property boundaries. Once a new legal description is created and officially recorded, it becomes the legal basis for property assessment and taxation.

Parcel legal modifications include:

  • A split divides one parcel of land into two or more separate parcels.

  • A combine merges two or more adjoining parcels into one.
