All subdivisions shall be subject to conditions, covenants, or restrictions or a similar recordable document which shall be filed with the Orange County recorder and which shall be effective for at least thirty years or the life of the improvements, whichever is greater. The document shall provide for the continued maintenance and viability of the project as approved. This requirement may be waived by the commission or the subdivision review committee at the time of approving a tract or parcel map. Other developments not constituting a subdivision may also be subject to this requirement if the commission or the subdivision review committee determine that such a document is necessary to ensure orderly development and the continued maintenance of the project.
