What is the most owner subdivision signatures that you've ever had to put on a subdivision map?

Most times, it's just a husband and a wife. Well today's exercise is to see if I can get one owner, one husband and wife owner, and one municipality owner all on one 18"x24" subdivision plat for a THREE lot subdivision at a convenient scale to show all of the data, along with the title (municipality form) vicinity map, description of the land being subdivided and all applicable deeds roads etc.

It's weird. One woman is selling a triangle piece to her son but it has to be attached to a tract he already owns, then her residue, and her lease hold in a lot that adjoins a lake.

Jesus what a map!

At least there were NO lienholders on any other the tracts, otherwise I'd have probably had to had a second sheet just for signature blocks.

16 - I think....

I'll have to look up the plat in my files, but I think I had to have 16 family members sign a one lot Minor Subdivision here in my county.

52

Just did a re-plat of condo plat in Baytown that has 52 different owners on it. And that doesnt even include that all but 3 also had lienholder signature requirements.

This plat had to be Fed-Ex to three different states and multpile cities in Texas. It was hard to believe that they all came back in one piece.

It took 2 sheets of 24x36 to fit just the signature notes.

If you know anything about prominent Whos' Who in Denver (back in the Day)
Some of the names will ring familiar

What about a notary block?

I had one with 6 notarized owners in Huntsville, Alabama.

Up here we're so laid back the planning commission just wants one owner.

The one I recall seeing was created maybe 100 years ago. There were something like 80 or more individual tracts with at least twice that many names involved. The plat had the drawing on the front of a sheet roughly 36" x 48" with all the dedications on the back in very small handwriting. Each dedication had to recite the metes and bounds description and its new lot/block designation and all the owners names plus signature lines.

I prepared a subdivision plat in Palm Springs Ca, on some Indian allotment land with 99 allottees that had to sign for the lease agreements. Although some could not be found, 5 or 6, there had to be a signature of someone else that could in some way legally attest that the person was not available though normal processes of search. The whole process took several years to get through.

Ongoing resubdivision where the owners can't agree on what to do.
There are 27 signatures at this time.
By next year there may be more.
