What this form is
California Senate Bill 9 allows an urban lot split of a qualifying single-family parcel into two parcels under Government Code §66411.7. Daly City's application walks through the state eligibility criteria for the split and requires the property owner's signature, marked on the form itself as requiring notarization before Planning will process it.
Who needs it
Daly City property owners applying to split an eligible single-family lot into two parcels under SB 9.
Why it needs a notary
The application's signature line reads 'Property Owner Signature (notarization required),' so the owner's signature must be notarized before submission.
