REGISTRATION PLANS
An owner wishing to subdivide his land may, with the approval of
the subdivision authority, have the land surveyed by a Land Surveyor and
register a subdivision plan. The plan may also contain reserve land, roads and
public utility parcels as required by the Municipal Government Act. The plan must show
all information as required by the applicable act, to define the boundaries of
the new parcels. Upon the registration of the plan, the current title(s) are
cancelled in full or as to part and the new title(s) are issued to the
registered owners. Titles to the reserves and public utility parcels are issued
to the municipality, while no titles are issued for the roads. Subdivision
plans do not affect the ownership of mines and mineral rights.
