Property Ownership
In Colorado, 'dedication' of land by a developer means:
AA. The developer names the development after a family member
BB. The developer voluntarily conveys land (such as streets, parks, and rights-of-way) to the public or a government entity as part of the subdivision approval process✓ Correct
CC. The developer sets aside land for private use only
DD. The developer dedicates a portion of sales to charity
Explanation
In the subdivision process, dedication is the voluntary transfer of land (typically roads, parks, drainage easements, utility corridors) by the developer to the public or a local government. Dedicated land becomes public property. Local governments require dedications as part of subdivision approval to ensure public infrastructure serves the new development.
