What this form is
Taylor's Planning Division requires this two-part affidavit whenever someone other than the property owner files a development application. The owner swears to the authorization before a notary, and the applicant/agent separately swears that the submittal is true, complete, and accurate. Both acknowledgments must be signed under notarial seal before the application will be accepted for review.
Who needs it
Property owners who hire an engineer, architect, developer, or other representative to file a plat, zoning, or development application with the City of Taylor.
Why it needs a notary
The form includes two separate notarial acknowledgment blocks — one for the owner and one for the agent — each requiring the signer to personally appear before a notary public.
