Frequently asked questions
- How do I get the Planning Board forms notarized?
- Identify the document in the packet that requires notarization, complete it without signing, then book a remote appointment and sign before the notary on video.
- Do I need to notarize every form in this packet?
- The packet includes many applications and checklists, but the sample covenant contains notary blocks. Check the requirements for your specific submission with the Dudley Planning Board.
- Can I use a commissioned online notary for the covenant?
- Massachusetts permanently authorized remote online notarization for its own notaries effective January 1, 2024. G.L. c. 183, §30(b) recognizes an acknowledgment taken outside the Commonwealth by a notary authorized to act where it was taken. Confirm acceptance with the city or town clerk if unsure.
- Who signs before the notary?
- The sample covenant provides separate notary blocks for a Planning Board member, the developer, and a mortgagee. Each signer should use the block that applies to them.
