A Larimer site plan needs scaled parcel details, but it is not a survey
A Larimer County building-permit site plan is a scaled drawing of the entire parcel. It shows property-line dimensions, roads, easements, water features, existing structures, and the proposed work with its distances from property lines.
The county’s Assessor parcel information can supply dimensions for drawing the plan. That map is a useful starting point, but it is not a boundary survey. A fence, driveway, or long-used yard edge should not be treated as proof of the legal line.
Use the county site-plan requirements before drawing. If the proposed structure is close to a boundary or easement, or the records and the ground do not agree, resolve that question with a surveyor before relying on the placement in a permit application.
