Are the patios on lot lines? I doubt it. If not, this is the

The Plat does show dimensions of each patio, to the nearest tenth of
a foot. There is no "(typical)" recorded under these dimensions.
Several patios actual dimensions are much larger than what the Plat
shows.

So where, again, _is_ this "typical" notation if not on the aforesaid plat?


He said its on the plat. Reading it again, it sounds like the "typical" applies to the offset for a patio relative to an unknown point. Simplest thing would be to go ask whoever drew it up.


I find it interesting that "improvements" even show on the plat filed
with the county. They are usually submitted by the developer and do
not change unless there is a total redevelopment of the property. The
plats recorded for my neighborhood were filed in 1956, at least a year
before there were actually any homes here. We still have some vacant
lots. When lots have been joined, they just show as lot "X" and "Y" on
the title with a single tax (strap) number, usually of the lower
number lot.
I don't think they would let you actually change lot corners, like
making 3 lots into 2 without going through the whole development
proce$$.
