Summary: A short subdivision or short plat is a process that divides land into two to nine separate lots (see Chapter 23.24 of the Seattle Municipal Code). DPD administers short plat applications and processes them as Master Use Permits, which allows for public comments and appeals. Your short plat application may also have other Master Use Permit components, such as environmental review (SEPA) and/or variances.
