Frequently asked questions
- How do I complete the notarized affidavit for this checklist?
- The property owner completes and signs the Affidavit of Legal Interest under oath before a commissioned online notary. Include the notarized affidavit with the preliminary plat application materials.
- Do I need to notarize the entire preliminary plat checklist?
- No. The checklist specifically calls for a signed and notarized Affidavit of Legal Interest completed by the legal owner. The checklist itself does not have a notary signature block.
- Can I use an online notary for the affidavit?
- Idaho law authorizes remote notarization by Idaho notaries who have registered for electronic and remote authorization. Idaho Code §51-111 also recognizes qualifying notarial acts performed by an authorized officer of another state.
