What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Dq Treat FDD, all land title surveys must be prepared at a minimum scale of 1" = 20'. This means that one inch on the survey map represents 20 feet in the actual physical space of the property.
This requirement ensures that the survey provides a sufficiently detailed representation of the property's dimensions and features. The level of detail is important for planning the layout of the Dq Treat location, including the building, parking, and other site elements. It also helps in identifying any potential issues related to property boundaries, easements, or existing structures.
A prospective Dq Treat franchisee should ensure that any land title survey they obtain for their location meets this minimum scale requirement. Failure to do so could result in delays or additional costs if the franchisor requires a revised survey with the appropriate level of detail. This requirement is part of a series of physical requirements that Dq Treat has laid out for land title surveys.
