What this form is
When a homeowner demolishes or backfills a private pool or spa without pulling a full removal permit process, the City of Tracy requires a notarized affidavit confirming the work and acknowledging that no compaction report was obtained. Because future construction over that area may require additional soils testing, the City requires the owner's statement to be verified by a notary before it accepts the affidavit into the property record.
Who needs it
Tracy homeowners who removed or backfilled an existing pool or spa shell and need to certify the condition of the site to the city.
Why it needs a notary
The form states the acknowledgment section 'Requires Completion by a Notary Public' and includes a full California all-purpose acknowledgment jurat for the owner's signature.
