(Prior code § 27-41.01; Amended
during 1990 codification)
A.
The
time limits specified in this division for reporting and acting on
maps may be extended by mutual consent. However, the city may not
require a routine waiver of time limits as a condition of accepting
the application for any map, unless the routine waiver is obtained
for the purpose of permitting concurrent processing or related approvals
or an environmental review on the same development project.
B.
No
application for a map pursuant to the terms of this division shall
be approved unless and until all review and related documents for
compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act have been
completed. The time limits specified in this division for acting on
an application for a map shall not commence, and an application for
a map shall not be deemed complete to commence such time limits, until
such time as there has been sufficient progress towards completing
the environmental documentation required by the California Environmental
Quality Act to enable the city to finish the related environmental
review within the time limits specified in this division.
C.
If
the city is unable to meet the specified time limits for acting on
maps, the city, by request of the subdivider, can contract to employ
private entities to perform such services to meet such time limits.
The city may charge the subdivider fees to defray costs attributable
to employing such private entities.
(Prior code § 27-41.02)
The city shall establish reasonable fees for the processing
of any map, but such fees shall not exceed a reasonable amount to
administer the provisions of this division.
(Prior code § 27-41.03)
Unless otherwise provided for in this division, notice shall
be given pursuant to Sections 65090 and 65091 of the California Government
Code. If the application is a conversion to a condominium project,
etc., notice shall be mailed by certified letter to each tenant.
(Prior code § 27-41.04)
The merger of two or more contiguous parcels or units of land
which may have been created under the provisions of the Map Act, or
any prior law regulating the division of land, or which were not subject
to such provisions at the time of their creation, shall be governed
by the provisions of Section 66451.10 et seq., of the Map Act.
(Prior code § 27-41.10)
