What this form is
Kyle's Planning Services division requires this form with every development or planning application. It confirms who legally owns the subject property and lets the owner designate a representative to handle filing, processing, and communication with city staff. Because it certifies ownership under oath, the City requires the signature to be acknowledged before a notary.
Who needs it
Property owners, developers, or their authorized company representatives filing any planning, zoning, or development application with the City of Kyle.
Why it needs a notary
Page two contains a statutory acknowledgment block ('This instrument was acknowledged before me on...') that must be completed and signed by a notary public.
