This provision of the Map Act is most often used when a prospective buyer wants assurance that the parcel they wish to buy was created legally. It is also used to validate parcels created as non-valid building sites through the Minor Land Division process. It should be noted that Certificates of Compliance, except in rare instances, do not address a parcel’s “buildability.” Whether or not a parcel can be built upon is a function of the ordinances in effect at the time of Building Permit application, which govern such activities. NOTE: A separate application and fee is required for each parcel for which a Certificate is requested. PROCESSING 1. Complete Certificate of Compliance application, and submit to the Planning Department along with the current filing fee. 2.
