Also known as recorded plat; a subdivision map filed by the developer in the county recorder's office that shows the location and boundaries of individual parcels.

• A. Subdivision plat map
• B. Land acquisition
• C. Dedication
• D. Federally related transaction

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is the recorded plat, also known as a subdivision plat map. This is the final map that a developer files with the county recorder’s office to lay out a subdivision. It shows where each parcel sits, the lot and block numbers, street lines, easements, and any dedications of land for public use. Once this plat is recorded, it becomes part of the public records and provides the official reference for the exact boundaries used in deeds and surveys.

From a practical standpoint, the plat map is what helps determine the precise size and shape of each parcel and how they relate to surrounding streets and parcels. It’s the document that ensures everyone is speaking the same language about where a property begins and ends.

Other terms don’t fit because they refer to different concepts: land acquisition is simply obtaining property, dedication is the act of giving land to the public, and a federally related transaction involves mortgages or other dealings tied to federal programs.
