Information and Plans Required With Discretionary Tentative Map Application.
In addition, the following plans and information shall be submitted
with a tentative map application:
1. A
preliminary grading plan prepared in conformance with the improvement
standards;
2. A
preliminary soils report shall be submitted with every tentative map
application. The preliminary soils report may be waived by the city
engineer if the city engineer determines that, due to the knowledge
the city engineer has as to the soil qualities of the subdivision,
a preliminary soils analysis is not necessary. If the preliminary
soils report indicates the presence of critically expansive soils
or other soil problems, including seepage, rocks or liquids containing
deleterious chemicals which, if not corrected, would lead to structural
defects or the deterioration of construction materials, a soils investigation
of each lot in the subdivision may be required by the city engineer
as a condition precedent to consideration of the tentative map. Any

Following the notice and action, the advisory agency shall approve, conditionally approve, or deny the proposed application based upon the minimum findings below, and in accordance with the requirements of this title. All decisions of the advisory agency may be appealed in accordance with the appeal procedures of Chapter
18.24.
B. The
advisory agency may conditionally approve or deny any such application,
extension or other entitlement associated with a vesting tentative
map if it finds that either:
1. A
failure to do so would place the residents of the subdivision or the
immediate community, or both, in a condition dangerous to their health
or safety or both; or
2. The
condition imposed or denial of the application is required in order
to comply with state or federal law.
(Ord. 2747 § 1, 1993; Ord. 3732 § 3, 2001)
The advisory agency shall make findings reflecting the evidence
on the record and take action to either approve, conditionally approve
or deny the application.
A. Findings
for approval of a tentative map (vesting or otherwise):
1. The
size, design, character, grading, location, orientation and configuration
of lots, roads and all improvements for the tentative subdivision
map are consistent with the density, uses, circulation and open space
systems, applicable policies and standards of the general plan or
any applicable specific plan for the area, whichever is more restrictive,
and the design standards of this title; and
2. The
subdivision will result in lots which can be used or built upon. The
subdivision will not create lots which are impractical for improvement
or use due to the steepness of terrain or location of watercourses
in the area; the size or shape of the lots or inadequate building
area; inadequate frontage or access; or, some other physical condition
of the area; and
3. The
design and density of the subdivision will not violate the existing
requirements prescribed by the Regional Water Quality Control Board
for the discharge of waste into the sewage system, pursuant to Division
7 of the
Water Code.
B. Findings
for denial of a tentative map (vesting or otherwise):
1. The
proposed map is not consistent with the general plan and any applicable
specific plan; or
2. The
design or improvement of the proposed subdivision is not consistent
with applicable general and specific plans; or
3. The
site is not physically suitable for the type of development; or
4. The
site is not physically suitable for the proposed density of development;
or
5. The
design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are likely
to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably
injure fish or wildlife or their habitat; or
6. The
design of the subdivision or type of improvements is likely to cause
serious public health problems; or
7. The
design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will conflict
with easements acquired by the public at large for access through
or use of property within the proposed subdivision. In this connection,
the governing body may approve a map if it finds that alternate easements,
for access or for use, will be provided, and that these will be substantially
equivalent to ones previously acquired by the public. This subsection
shall apply only to easements of record or to easements established
by judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction and no authority
is granted to a legislative body to determine that the public at large
has acquired easements for access through or use of property within
the proposed subdivision.
C. Additional
Findings for a Condominium Conversion. In addition to the findings
above, the advisory agency must make the following finding(s) for
a tentative map which involves a condominium conversion:
1. Findings
a—e as listed in Section 66427.1 of the Subdivision Map Act.
2. The condominium conversion complies with Chapter
19.58 of the Zoning Ordinance.
(Ord. 2747 § 1, 1993; Ord. 3286 § 3, 1998)
The tentative map, or any portion thereof, may be conditionally
approved if there is evidence of critical soils problems. As a condition
of the approval, the issuance of any building permit may be withheld
for individual lots until the recommended corrective action, as determined
by the city engineer, has been incorporated into the building plans
for the construction of each such structure.
(Ord. 2747 § 1, 1993)
Within two working days of the action by the advisory agency,
a notice of their decision shall be mailed to the applicant at the
address appearing on the application, or to such other address designated
in writing by the applicant. The notice shall contain the following
information:
A. Findings
upon which the decision was based;
B. The
environmental document prepared and date ratified;
C. The
action of the advisory agency;
E. A tentative
map expiration date and renewal requirements;
F. Notice
of the appeal period and a brief description of procedure to file
an appeal; and

shall be effective upon the expiration of the 10-calendar-day appeal
period, unless an appeal is received.
(Ord. 2747 § 1, 1993)
An approved or conditionally approved tentative map application
is assignable, but an assignment does not discharge any conditions
or obligations of the application. If an approved or conditionally
approved application is assigned, notice shall be given to the director
within 30 calendar days of the assignment. Such notice shall include
the name(s) and address(es) of the "party(ies)" being assigned the
approved or conditionally approved application.

in Section 66452.6(d) et seq., of the Subdivision Map Act.
(Ord. 2747 § 1, 1993)
A subdivider may request an extension of the expiration date
for an approved or conditionally approved tentative map. A request
to extend the tentative map expiration date shall be made on an application
form provided by the director. The application shall be submitted
prior to expiration of the tentative map and once the application
is submitted to the planning department, the tentative map shall automatically
be extended for another 60 days.
The information and materials required for an application to extend the expiration date of a tentative map shall be the same as required in Section
18.06.030.
(Ord. 2747 § 1, 1993)
Upon receipt of a complete application to extend the tentative map expiration date, the director shall schedule the application before the appropriate advisory agency (refer to Table 18.04.030.A). The director shall give notice pursuant to Table 18.06.030.A as required in Section
18.10.060 (Notice of Intent), or as required in Section
18.06.130 (Notice of Public Hearing).
The director shall review the request to extend the date of
expiration for its approval or denial. A copy of the director's report
shall be mailed to the applicant three days prior to the public hearing
for the extension. In approving or denying the request for extension,
the advisory agency shall make findings supporting its decision.
Time extensions shall only be granted subject to the condition
that the final map shall be prepared and improvements constructed
and installed in compliance with requirements in effect at the time
such extension is considered by the advisory agency.
(Ord. 2747 § 1, 1993; Ord. 3732 § 3, 2001)
A tentative map application which has been approved or conditionally
approved may be extended for a total of five years from the expiration
date; unless otherwise provided for by state law. The advisory agency
may extend the expiration of the tentative map application in any
increments it deems necessary up to, but not beyond, five years.
(Ord. 2747 § 1, 1993; Ord. 3286 § 3, 1998; Ord. 3732 § 3, 2001)
A. This
section shall only apply if written notice of an intention to file
multiple final or parcel maps was indicated on the approved, or conditionally
approved tentative map, or, if after filing the tentative map the
director and the subdivider concur in the filing of multiple final
maps.
B. Each
filing of a final map authorized by
Government Code Section 66456.1
or a parcel map authorized by
Government Code Section 66463.1 shall
extend the expiration of the approved or conditionally approved tentative
map by 36 months from the date of its expiration, or the date of the
previously filed final map, whichever is later, either as a condition
of approval or as part of the subdivision or as part of an obligation
of an underlying development agreement, a subdivider is required to
expend $125,000.00 (adjusted annually pursuant to
Government Code
Section 66452.6) or more to construct, improve, or finance the construction
or improvement of public improvements outside the property boundaries
of a tentative map, as determined by the evidence submitted to the
city engineer, excluding improvements for public rights-of-way and
easements abutting the boundary of the property to be subdivided which
are reasonably related to the development of the property.
C. The
extensions shall not extend the approval or conditional approval of
the tentative map more than 10 years, unless extended for a period
of time provided for in a development agreement (but not beyond the
duration of the development agreement).
(Ord. 2747 § 1, 1993)
An approved or conditionally approved tentative map may be modified
as allowed herein. A subdivider may propose to modify the terms of
the design of the approved or conditionally approved tentative map
and/or the waiver or alteration of the conditions of approval. A subdivider
may also modify an approved or conditionally approved tentative map
if the final map or parcel map does not substantially comply with
the approved or conditionally approved tentative map, as determined
by the city engineer.
Requests to modify an approved or conditionally approved tentative
map application will either be processed either as a minor or major
modification.
(Ord. 2747 § 1, 1993)
A minor modification shall be limited to changes which:
A. Are
substantially consistent with the intent of the original approval;
B. Do
not change the finding(s) upon which the approval was based;
C. Do
not have a substantial or significant effect on the property rights
of other land owners in the area.
Notwithstanding the above, a modification may be processed as
a minor modification as provided for in an adopted specific plan.
Modifications which do not meet all of the criteria above shall be

(Ord. 2747 § 1, 1993; Ord. 3286 § 3, 1998; Ord. 3732 § 3, 2001)
All modifications other than those meeting the criteria set forth in Section
18.06.300 shall be processed as major modifications. Major modifications require notice of a public hearing as required in Section
18.06.130 before action by the advisory agency which originally acted upon the tentative map.
(Ord. 2747 § 1, 1993)
Action by the advisory agency to modify a tentative map application
shall not change the expiration date for filing the required documents
with the city engineer, such as a final map or parcel map.
(Ord. 2747 § 1, 1993)
A. At the time of submitting a tentative map application a subdivider may request that the advisory agency waive the requirement to submit and process a parcel map as otherwise required pursuant to Chapter
18.16. The request to waive the requirement of a parcel map shall also include an application for a certificate of compliance and new legal descriptions for all new parcels pursuant to Chapter
18.14.
B. A parcel
map may be waived by the advisory agency if it is provided with evidence
that:
1. The
site is a portion of the operating right-of-way of a railroad corporation,
as defined by Section 230 of the
Public Utilities Code, and will be
created by a short-term lease (terminable by either party on not more
than 30-days' notice); or,
2. At
least two-thirds of the owners of mobile homes who are tenants in
a mobile home park sign a petition as shown in Section 66428.1(b)
of the subdivision map act indicating their intent to buy the mobile
home park for purposes of converting the park to resident ownership,
and a field survey has been performed, the requirement for a final
or parcel map shall be waived unless any of the conditions listed
in Section 66428.1 of the Subdivision Map Act exist; or
3. The
land is being conveyed to or from a governmental agency, public entity,
public utility, or the land is being conveyed to a subsidiary of a
public utility for conveyance to that public utility for rights-of
way, unless a showing is made in individual cases, upon substantial
evidence, that public policy necessitates a parcel map; or
4. The
land being divided consists of a lot or parcels shown on a recorded
parcel map or final map and the full street improvements, flood and
drainage improvements, water supply improvements, sanitary sewer improvements,
electrical improvements, natural gas, cable and telephone improvements,
have been constructed and dedication of all necessary rights of way
and easements have been completed, and monumentation is evident.
C.
The advisory agency acting upon the tentative map and the request to waive the parcel map shall make the findings of Section
18.06.180. The advisory agency may grant the waiver and will issue a certificate of compliance if:
a. The
subdivider files an application with the city engineer, including
any fees required, verifying the existence of monumentation, the existence
of improvements and completion of dedications and easements; and
b. The
advisory agency finds that the tentative map complies with requirements
of this title and the Subdivision Map Act.
D. The advisory agency may, pursuant to Chapter
18.14, place conditions in the certificate of compliance to be fulfilled and implemented prior to issuance of a permit or other grant of approval for development of the property.
E. Upon the waiver of a parcel map pursuant to this section, the city engineer shall file with the county recorder a certificate of compliance or conditional certificate of compliance in accordance with Section
18.14.020 of this title for each new parcel created.
