Explanation
BACKGROUND: As part of the 2010 code changes that created the new Department of Building and Zoning Services, the code sections related to platting and land subdivision were moved from Title 31, Planning and Platting, to Title 41, Engineering and Platting. Also as part of those code changes, Title 31 was renamed to Planning and Historic Preservation to better reflect the focus of the remaining code in that title. These code changes correct all remaining code references to the prior title of Title 31, Planning and Platting, in order to correctly reflect the current title of that code, Planning and Historic Preservation.
FISCAL IMPACT: No funding is required for this legislation.
