A flag lot is a method of subdividing land into individual parcels in such a way that compliance with local subdivision regulations can be avoided. Owners define each lot with a minimal amount of road frontage to gain exemptions and avoid regulatory compliance and expenses.
A lot is an individual parcel of land within a subdivision's plat. This land unit must have the appropriate zoning designation to be considered buildable and suitable for construction.
A tax map is a detailed and comprehensive document that shows the location, boundaries, dimensions, and various relevant information about parcels of land subject to property taxes. These maps are typically bound into books and maintained as public records at local tax offices.
