Smyrna requires it as Part 1 of a complete application, which also includes plans, reports, and other materials. The form outlines review, approval, and recording steps; applicants should check the Town’s current fee schedule and submit the required accompanying materials.
Who needs it
An applicant seeking Town of Smyrna approval for a subdivision must complete this notice of intent and provide the accompanying plans and materials required for the application.
Why it needs a notary
