Recording Subdivision Plats (maps)
Plats are maps showing boundaries of subdivided land. A plat should be filed each time a legal boundary of a parcel is changed.
County plat - is a plat that requires approval from Commissioner's Court before it can be filed. Those fees are set by the County Engineer's Office and vary depending upon size.
City plat - is a plat within a city limit and the approval of the city council must be shown on the plat before it can be filed.

Posting Legal Notices
Notices include public meetings, agendas and foreclosures are posted in the main hallway and on the east and west sides of the courthouse as well as in the parking garage area on the north side of the building. They are also posted on the County Clerk website at https://gov.kofiletech.us/tx-montgomery
