When is a Plot Plan or New Survey required?
As a rule, any time that the “footprint” of a primary or accessory building changes, a new plot plan and as-built survey are required. This includes decks, porches, and storage buildings. However, staff does have the authority to waive the survey if the construction is obviously not in the proximity of any setbacks or easements. Modifications inside the existing building shell do not require a plot plan or survey.
