Subdivisions & Plats
Electronic Plat Submittal
The City of Savannah accepts electronic submittals for subdivision, recombination, and easement plats. Beginning August 12, 2025, subdivision plat applications can be submitted through our eTRAC system. While we will continue accepting emailed application items during this transition, we strongly encourage applicants to begin using eTRAC now to take advantage of its added convenience, allowing you to submit plats anytime, from any location. Starting January 1, 2026, all subdivision plat applications must be submitted through eTRAC, as emailed submissions will no longer be accepted.
