Q: If land is considered farm land and a portion is wanted to place a home on does the land need to be surveyed?
How does the land go from being taxed as farm land to residential taxes?
A: Land use is an area of law that is extremely local. Check with your local county government about the rules and regulations where you live or consult land use counsel.
Anthony M. Avery agrees with this answer
A: In what State and County? Your question deals with issues of local subdivision rules, State taxation rules, and local zoning laws. The act of surveying land is performed in service to issues raised by any one or all of these bodies of law. All good questions, but ones best asked while sitting across from a local land use and zoning lawyer.
