What is a Building Format Plan?


Separate from a reconfiguration of a lot, a building format plan is used to subdivide a building into individual vertical lots, such as apartments, offices, townhouses and business units.

Why is this Important?


Maintenance Responsibilities

With each subdivision, there are separate maintenance responsibilities for both the corporate body owner and the lot owner. The corporate body owner is responsible for the maintenance of building foundation, landscaping and external building features. The lot owner is responsible for all other issues associated with their individual lot. By determining the boundaries of a lot, common maintenance/property disputes are avoided.
