What this form is
California Senate Bill 9 (Government Code §§ 66411.7 and 65852.21) requires cities to ministerially approve qualifying urban lot splits and two-unit developments on single-family lots. Mammoth Lakes requires this separate SB 9 application alongside the building permit package, and the Property Owner Signature section must be completed under a full California All-Purpose Acknowledgment rather than a plain signature.
Who needs it
Property owners in Mammoth Lakes applying to split a single-family lot or build a second residential unit under SB 9.
Why it needs a notary
The form marks each Property Owner Signature line '(Notary Required)' and attaches a California All-Purpose Acknowledgment certificate that must be completed before a notary public.
