Steps for subdivision:

• A person who wishes to subdivide a plot engages a surveyor
• The surveyor takes coordinates of the site to draw the subdivision sketch.
• The site owner submits the sketch to the council for approval.
• The site owner surrenders the original lease at LAA.
• A copy of the lease is issued to the owner.
• The surveyor then uses the lease copy and coordinates to build a file which is then submitted at LAA for examination.
• After examination S10 for subdivision is issued out.
• The owner of the site then comes for lease application.
