- It allows a person to apply for a determination as to whether a division of land complied with the State and local laws in effect at the time of division.
- If a division of land complied with the State and Local Laws at the time of the division a Certificate of Compliance may be recorded. If the division of land did not comply then a Conditional Certificate of Compliance may be recorded.
