     515A.2-110 Condominium plats. 

    (a) Condominium plats are a part of the declaration.  The 
 condominium plat shall contain a certification by a registered 
 professional land surveyor or registered professional architect, 
 as to the parts of the plat prepared by each, that the 
 condominium plat accurately depicts all information required by 
 this section.  The portions of the condominium plat depicting 
 the dimensions of the portions of the condominium described in 
 paragraphs (b)(3), (8), (9), (10), and (11), may be prepared by 
 either a land surveyor or an architect.  The other portions of 
 the plat must be prepared only by a land surveyor.  All 
 measurements must be undertaken in accordance with good 
 professional practice.  The certification must indicate that the 
 work was undertaken by or under the supervision of the 
 certifying architect or land surveyor.  Certification by the 
 architect or land surveyor does not constitute a guaranty or 
 warranty of the nature, suitability, or quality of construction 
 of the condominium.  

    (b) Each condominium plat shall show:  

    (1) the number of the condominium and the boundaries and 
 dimensions of the land included in the condominium; 

    (2) the dimensions and location of all existing structural 
 improvements and roadways; 

    (3) the intended location and dimensions of any 
 contemplated common element improvements to be constructed 
 within the condominium labeled either "MUST BE BUILT" or "NEED 
 NOT BE BUILT"; 

    (4) the location and dimensions of any additional real 
 estate, labeled as such; 

    (5) the extent of any encroachments by or upon any portion 
 of the condominium; 

    (6) the location and dimensions of all recorded easements 
 within the condominium serving or burdening any portion of the 
 condominium; 

    (7) the distance between noncontiguous parcels of real 
 estate; 

    (8) the location and dimensions of limited common elements, 
 including porches, balconies and patios, other than limited 
 common elements described in section 515A.2-102(2) and (4); 

    (9) the location and dimensions of the vertical boundaries 
 of each unit and that unit's identifying number; 

    (10) the location and dimensions of the horizontal unit 
 boundaries with reference to established or assumed datum and 
 that unit's identifying number; 

    (11) any units which may be converted by the declarant to 
 create additional units or common elements (section 515A.2-115) 
 identified separately.  

    (c) When adding additional real estate (section 
 515A.2-111), the declarant shall record supplemental condominium 
 plats for that real estate conforming to the requirements of 
 subsection (b).  If less than all additional real estate is 
 being added, the supplemental condominium plats shall also show 
 the location and dimensions of the remaining portion.  

    (d) If a declarant subdivides or converts any unit into two 
 or more units, common elements or limited common elements 
 (section 515A.2-115), the declarant shall record an amendment to 
 the condominium plat showing the location and dimensions of any 
 new units, common elements and limited common elements thus 
 created.
