Colorado § 30-28-301 - Legislative declaration.
Full text of Colorado Colorado Revised Statutes § 30-28-301 — Legislative declaration., with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 30-28-301. Legislative declaration.
(1) The general assembly hereby finds and declares that, in certain areas of the state, property has been conveyed as irregular parcels or as parcels platted prior to establishment of current subdivision regulations. Situations exist where the physical layout of lots conveyed in this manner are not in dispute, but the legal descriptions of these lots contain inaccuracies such that conflicts exist in the written record locating property boundaries. These conflicts in the legal descriptions jeopardize the ability of property owners to utilize and to convey their property. These conflicts often affect a number of properties such that the most efficient means of correcting them is to create a subdivision exemption plat for the area which can be used as a uniform basis for legal descriptions. The inability of property owners to resolve conflicts in legal descriptions is contrary to the public welfare and interferes with efficient and economic development and utilization of land.
(2) It is the purpose of this part 3 to provide for the preparation of subdivision exemption plats for unplatted areas or for areas platted prior to current subdivision regulations which can be used as a uniform basis for legal descriptions of such areas.
