Subdividing land can be a very daunting and confusing task for those unfamiliar with the standard procedures involved. It is the goal of the Planning Department to make this process as smooth and seamless as possible by providing guidance and answering your questions.

As a beginning reference point, the Planning Department has created a short brochure titled "A Citizen's Guide to Subdividing Land" that we hope you find helpful. It may downloaded by clicking here.
(Guide is being updated. We apologize for the inconvenience)

For further reference, you can find a full copy of the Alamance County Subdivision Ordinance under the Section titled "Alamance County Land Use Ordinances" located to the left of the screen. Please feel free to contact our department with any questions
