Section 3036
Disposition versions
3036. In territory without a cadastral survey and also in territory with a cadastral survey if permitted by law, an immovable shall be described by metes and bounds and by its measurements; an indication of the elements useful for locating the relative position of the immovable and a statement that no land file exists, shall also be included in the description.
The description of an immovable by reference to the original survey or by means of geographic coordinates or plane rectangular coordinates is nevertheless admissible in a territory without a cadastral survey, provided that the description, which must also state that no land file exists, allows the immovable to be properly identified and its relative position to be properly located. Where the description of an immovable by reference to the original survey refers to parts of lots, it must be completed by a description by metes and bounds and the measurements of each of those parts.
