A plain English explanation of this ACT planning and property term.
Cadastral description means the statutory identification of a parcel of land by its cadastral references, including Division (or District), Section, Block and, where applicable, Unit, used to uniquely identify land within the ACT Land Titles Register.
The official description used to identify land parcels in the government's mapping and title system. In the ACT it commonly uses district or division, section and block details. It is more legally precise than a street address, which can change or may cover more than one parcel.
