A. Whenever a legal subdivision of land, or any lot or subdivision, is owned by two or more persons in severalty and the description of one or more parts or parcels thereof cannot, in the judgment of the county assessor, be made sufficiently certain and accurate for the purpose of assessment and taxation, without noting the metes and bounds of the same, he shall make his report thereof to the board of county commissioners of his county, setting forth the description of the legal subdivision, with his request that the same be surveyed and platted in conformity with this section.

C. Said plat shall be certified to by the person making the survey as correct and when so certified shall be submitted to the board of county commissioners for approval; and when endorsed with the approval of the board it shall be signed and acknowledged by the chairman thereof and filed for record with the county clerk and shall be known as commissioners' plat of the tract or subdivision therein designated, and when so executed and filed shall have the same effect as if executed, acknowledged, and filed by the owners thereof.
