A property owner wants to sell 10 out of 20 acres to a friend for building a home. What is required?

  1. Consent from the municipality that a building permit can be acquired.

  2. Permission from the local authority for a subdivision plan.

  3. Approval from Hydro One Networks to supply services to the new parcel.

  4. Consent from the local authority for a property division.

The correct answer is: Consent from the local authority for a property division.

The correct answer is obtaining consent from the local authority for a property division. When a property owner wishes to sell a part of their land, particularly in a case where they are dividing a larger parcel into smaller ones, it typically requires official approval from the local government or authority overseeing land use and division within that jurisdiction. This process ensures that the division meets local zoning laws, development plans, and land use regulations. In many cases, this consent may involve a formal application process where the proposed division is evaluated in terms of its compliance with urban planning objectives and other criteria set by the local authority. This step is crucial to maintain orderly development within a community and to address any potential impacts on the surrounding area. The other options, while relevant to different aspects of property development, such as obtaining a building permit or ensuring utility services, do not specifically address the fundamental requirement of getting authorization for the division of the property itself.
