Can I subdivide my property?
The Zoning Ordinance determines the minimum lot requirements for parcels in each zoning district. Minimum lot size, width, street frontage, and depth must be met for the proposed lots before a subdivision can be approved. A pre-application meeting with the Town staff is recommended. To set up a meeting, please contact us at (540)338-2304. A copy of the plat for the property to be subdivided will be required.
