Which subdivision category pertains to subdivisions of not more than 1,500 hectares and 50 parcels?

• A. Public Land Subdivision
• B. Isolated Surveys
• C. Group Settlement/Townsite Subdivision Surveys
• D. Cadastral Surveys

Answer: (C)

This category is used for subdivisions designed as group settlements or townsites, where the tract is kept within a manageable size and parcel count. Specifically, it applies to subdivisions of not more than 1,500 hectares and up to 50 parcels. The limit on area and number of parcels helps keep the surveying, plotting, and titling process straightforward and suitable for settlement programs, facilitating orderly distribution to settlers and efficient administration. If the tract were larger or had more parcels, another subdivision category would be more appropriate, such as a public land subdivision survey. Isolated surveys cover different cases that don’t fit the group settlement/townsite criteria, and cadastral surveys pertain to the original field surveys and boundary determinations.
