What this form is
This form pairs with the City of Corsicana's Demolition Permit Application and lets the Planning & Zoning Department confirm that the person requesting a demolition actually owns the property and has authorized the listed contractor to do the work. The applicant swears under oath that the facts stated are true, and the form cannot be finalized without this notarized authorization on file.
Who needs it
Any property owner in Corsicana who is hiring a contractor to demolish a structure must sign this sworn authorization before the permit is finalized.
Why it needs a notary
The form states 'BEFORE ME, the undersigned authority... SWORN TO AND SUBSCRIBED before me' with a signature line for a Notary Public in and for Navarro County, so it must be notarized.
