Frequently asked questions
- Which part of the subdivision plat requires notarization?
- The final plat includes an “Acknowledgment of Owner’s Signature.” It identifies the property owner as the signer and provides a space for the notary’s acknowledgment.
- Do I need to notarize the entire subdivision regulations document?
- The regulations themselves do not have fields to complete. The notary block shown in the text is part of the final plat certificate; check which certificates apply to your plat.
- How do I sign the owner acknowledgment online?
- Complete the applicable plat documents, book with a commissioned online notary, and sign during the video session. Tennessee authorizes remote online notarization by its notaries under the Online Notary Public Act, Tenn. Code Ann. §§8-16-301 to 8-16-313.
- Where do I submit the approved final plat?
