What this form is
Lot owners use this form to identify the subdivision plat they own and declare it vacated, stating their intent to nullify the effect of its recordation. The form refers to the City of Eagle Pass subdivision regulations and says the declaration is submitted to the Planning and Zoning Commission for approval. It also explains that filing the instrument with the Maverick County Clerk will cause “Vacated” to be written across the plat.
Who needs it
