Frequently asked questions
- Which part of the submission needs notarization?
- The checklist requires a consent-and-dedication statement on the final plat, signed by the owner, proprietor, or trustee and duly acknowledged before an authorized officer.
- Do I need to notarize the application page?
- The application page has applicant and owner signature lines, but the checklist specifically calls for an acknowledgment on the accompanying final plat.
- How do I complete the acknowledgment online?
- Virginia was the first U.S. state credited with authorizing remote online notarization, effective July 1, 2012. A commissioned online notary can notarize a signature during a video session; Virginia recognizes and presumes valid a notarial act performed in another state by a notary authorized there.

- The form requests a signed application and checklist, three copies of the final plat, and one digital copy. Confirm current submission details with Front Royal before filing.
- Where do I send the completed materials?
