Overview

Allows a county board of supervisors to adopt regulations to authorize small land subdivisions if certain requirements are met. Authorizes the Real Estate Commissioner to inspect and issue reports allowing for the sale of small land subdivisions.

History

The county board of supervisors (BOS) in a county regulates the subdivision of all lands within its corporation limits, excluding any subdivisions that are regulated by municipalities (A.R.S. § 11-821).

The Real Estate Commissioner is the head authority within the Arizona Department of Real Estate (ADRE). ADRE exists to protect the public interest through licensure and regulation of the real estate profession (A.R.S. §§ 32-2102, 32-2107).
