Clark County is unable to determine the location of easements. A surveyor, a title company, or real estate attorney may be able to assist you with the location of easements.

The tentative map is the initial action that shows the design of a proposed subdivision and the existing conditions in and around it. Tentative map requests are filed with the Zoning Administrator. See Comprehensive Planning’s website for further information.

A final map is a major subdivision map process when subdividing residential lots into 5 lots or more, or for a commercial/industrial subdivision map.

A reversionary map is a map to revert back to acreage or to a configuration previously mapped. You can remove a map that has previously recorded by recording a reversionary map.  This map will take the property back to a previous state, or its original state.

Once technical review is submitted, we have 30 calendar days to issue comments.  You will respond to those comments, and each second/ subsequent review, we have 10 days to issue new comments.  Once all comments have been addressed, and off-site improvement plans have been approved, you can schedule a mylar appointment, which we have 10 days to route for final signature.

You can file your final map technical review once you have each of the following:

• An approved tentative map conditionally accepted/approved.
• A drainage and traffic study approved (if required).
• Off-site improvement plans have been submitted.
• All submittal documents listed on the Final Map Submittal Checklist.

A parcel map is a minor subdivision map process when subdividing residential lots into 4 lots or less. 

A boundary line adjustment is an adjustment of the ownership line between two existing legal –parcels by conveying title interest.  A boundary line adjustment can only be filed, at the discretion of the County Surveyor, if there is a construction error or to make a nonconforming lot more conforming.  A boundary line adjustment only moves the ownership lines, and not the platted lines.

An administrative exception to filing a Parcel Map Review may be submitted if all issues that would have been identified in the Parcel Map Review have been addressed. Such request for administrative exception must be in writing and must be accompanied by the following:

You must file a new tentative map prior to submittal of an amended final map if you are changing the original boundary of the map, adding additional lots, or changing street configuration.

Yes, you can file an extension of time.  For minor subdivision maps, you can file as many extensions as needed; however, with each approval, the County reserves the right to re-review your project and add additional conditions based on the area (right-of-way, off-sites, etc).  Each extension is approved for one additional year.

Yes, you can file an extension of time.  For a major subdivision map, you can file an extension of time as long as you have an active tentative map.  Each extension is approved to the same time period as the initially approved tentative map, or one year if the associated tentative map has been previously extended past the initial four years due to recorded phases.  An amended map without an associated tentative map may apply for an Extension of Time of up to one year.

When the tentative map (TM) is approved, you get four years to record a final map.

If a final map mylar, that covers all or a portion of the property included in the tentative map, is not recorded within four years from the date of approval of the Tentative Map, then an extension of time is not permitted.

If a final map mylar of a series of final maps is not recorded within 2 years from the recordation date of a final map mylar that covers a portion of the tentative map, then an extension of time is not permitted.

The Commission or Board may grant an extension for 2 years provided that a final map mylar of a series of final maps has been recorded since the recordation date of the last final map or the last extension of time.

Restrictive Covenant agreements are required for development that require less than full off-site improvements at the time of development.  The covenant shall require the construction of full off-site improvements in the future when requested by the Director of Public Works. This requirement may be satisfied by participation in a special improvement district that causes the installation of the required improvements.
