In addition to the requirements of the Subdivision Map Act governing
the filing of tentative maps, the following hereby are adopted as
additional requirements:
(1) Tract Number Or Name.
(a) Before filing a tentative map the subdivider shall obtain from the
county surveyor the assignment of a number for the tract to be subdivided,
or shall submit to the county surveyor for his or her approval, a
name, title or other designation to be given such tract;
(b) If such name, title or designation includes the name or designation
of any existing city, town or unincorporated community, other than
the city, or if such name, title or designation is the same or so
nearly the same as to cause confusion, or mislead the public as that
of any other tract or subdivision, a map or plat of which shall have
been previously recorded in Los Angeles County, such name, title or
designation shall be disapproved by the county surveyor and the subdivider
shall submit such other name, title or designation as shall meet such
approval;
(c) When a number shall have been assigned or a name, title or designation
shall have been approved by the county surveyor for a subdivision,
the subdivider shall place the same upon each tentative or final map
of the subdivision and the number, name, title or designation shall
not thereafter be changed nor altered in any manner upon any tentative
or final map of the subdivision, unless and until a new number shall
have been approved by the county surveyor as in this section provided.
In the event that a subdivider elects to file an approved record of
survey map in place of a final map, such number, title or designation
shall not appear upon the approved record of survey map;
(2) Size and scale: Each tentative map shall be eight inches by twelve
inches or any multiple thereof, and shall be drawn to such scale as
to clearly show the details of the plan thereon. Wherever practicable,
such scale shall be a scale of one inch to one hundred feet;
(3) Identity of subdivider. When a tentative map is submitted the commission
may require the subdivider to show any of the following:
(a) That he or she is the owner of the property shown on the map as proposed
for subdivision;
(b) That he or she has an option or contract to purchase the property
or that portion of which he or she is not the owner; and
(c) That he or she is the authorized agent of one who can comply with
the requirements of subsections (a) and (b) above.
(Prior code § 18.2)
The tentative map shall show and contain the following matters
as an aid to the commission in its consideration of the design of
the subdivision:
(1) The tract number, name or designation;
(2) Sufficient legal description of the land as to define the boundaries
of the proposed tract;
(3) Name and address of subdivider and of registered civil engineer or
licensed surveyor, if any;
(4) The location, names and existing widths of all adjoining highways,
streets or ways;
(5) The width and approximate grades of all highways, streets and ways
within such proposed subdivision;
(6) The width and approximate locations of all existing proposed easements,
whether public or private, for roads, drainage, sewers or public utility
purposes;
(7) Approximate radius of all curves;
(8) The approximate lot layout and the approximate divisions of each
lot;
(9) Approximate locations of all areas subject to inundation or storm
water overflow and the locations, widths and conditions of flow of
all watercourses;
(10) Source of water supply, if any;
(11) Proposed method of sewage disposal, if any;
(12) Use of property proposed;
(13) Proposed public areas, if any;
(14) Approximate contours where topography controls street layout;
(15) Date, north point and scale;
(17) Approximate location of each area covered by trees with a statement
of the nature of the cover and the kind and approximate location of
all trees standing within the boundaries of proposed public rights-of-way;
(18) Approximate location and outline to scale of each building or structure
which is not to be moved in the development of the subdivision;
Provided, however, that if it is impossible or impracticable
to place upon the tentative map any matter hereinabove in this section
required, such matter or information shall be furnished in a written
statement which shall be submitted with such map;
(19) Each street shown by its actual street name or by temporary name
or letter for the purposes of identification until the proper name
of such street is determined.
(Prior § 18.2)
The planning commission and/or the council may reject a tentative
map if the practical use which can be made of the property as proposed
to be subdivided is a use prohibited by any ordinance, statute, law
or other valid regulation.
(Prior code § 18.2)
All tentative maps filed hereunder shall be filed with the city
clerk. Not less than the original and four copies of each map offered
shall be so filed, being one copy for the city clerk, one for the
commission, one for the city engineer and one copy for the subdivider,
to be returned to the subdivider with the required changes, corrections
and additions, if any, noted thereon. The original map shall also
be returned to the subdivider if corrections, etc, are required, and
when such corrections, etc., have been made, such map shall be returned
to the city clerk, together with two copies thereof, being one copy
for the commission and one copy for the city engineer.
The city clerk shall immediately mark each map and each copy
with the word "FILED," insert date of filing and sign his or her name
and official title thereunder.
The city clerk shall immediately refer such map to the engineer
for his or her examination, checking and report, and shall not present
the same to the planning commission until such report has been received.
The fees required by Section 20.16.060 must accompany the filing of
the map.
(Prior code § 18.2)
A vesting tentative map confers a vested right to proceed with
development in substantial compliance with the ordinances, policies,
and standards in effect at the time the application for the vesting
tentative map is determined to be complete or the vesting tentative
map is approved, as provided in
Government Code Section 66498.1. A
vesting tentative map shall be processed in a manner pursuant to requirements
of the subdivision map act and to the requirements for tentative maps
as prescribed in this chapter. Additionally, the following requirements
shall apply to a vesting tentative map:
(1) The words "Vesting Tentative Map" shall be printed conspicuously
on the face of the proposed map;
(2) The rights conferred by a vesting tentative map shall last for a
period of one year beyond recordation of the final map.
