Michigan HB5529 amends land division laws to set parcel and lot size requirements and limits.

Michigan HB5529 amends sections 109, 148, and 186 of the 1967 Michigan Land Division Act to establish parcel and lot size requirements and limits. The bill mandates that a municipality must approve or disapprove a proposed land division within 45 days. It sets minimum lot width and area requirements for residential lots, with exceptions for lots served by public water and sewer. The bill also requires deeds for unplatted land to state whether the right to make further divisions is proposed to be conveyed. Compliance with these provisions is not a prerequisite for recording a deed.
