What is the smallest subdivision affected by the Subdivision Map Act?

  1. One parcel

  2. Two or more parcels

  3. Four or more parcels

  4. A single building

The correct answer is: Two or more parcels

The Subdivision Map Act affects the smallest subdivision of land, which is defined as two or more parcels. Option A, one parcel, is incorrect because a subdivision must have at least two parcels in order to fall under the jurisdiction of the Subdivision Map Act. Option C, four or more parcels, is also incorrect because two or three parcels would still be considered a subdivision. Option D, a single building, is incorrect because a subdivision involves dividing a piece of land into multiple parcels, not just one building. Therefore, the correct answer is B - two or more parcels.
