Each tentative map shall be submitted with written statements

by a licensed geologist or registered civil engineer in the state,
and based upon adequate test borings, stating the effect of geological
or soil conditions or every division of land for which a final tract
or parcel map is required. If such report indicates the presence of
critically expansive soils or other soils problems which, if not corrected,
would lead to structural defects, a soils investigation of each lot
in a division of land may be required. Such report shall also recommend
the corrective action which is likely to prevent structural damage
to each structure proposed to be constructed in the area where such
soils problems exist. A division of land may be approved, or a portion
thereof, where such soils problems exist if both the city engineer
and director of community development determine that the recommended
action is likely to prevent structural damage to each structure to
be constructed, and, as a condition to the issuance of any building
permit, may require that the approved recommended action be incorporated
in the construction of each structure. The geological and/or soils
report may be waived if both the city engineer and director of community
development have determined that, due to their knowledge as to the
soils qualities of the soils of the division of land, no such report
is necessary;
J. Environmental
impact information, as required by the city;
K. Preliminary
title report;
L. Any of the information required by subsections
A,
B,

(Prior code § 9104.05; Ord. 855 § 3, 1994)

is concerned for which a tentative tract map is required, the provisions
of Section 66427, Article I, Chapter 2 of the Subdivision Map Act
shall prevail.
(Prior code § 9104.09; Ord. 855 § 3, 1994)

Real property may be reverted to acreage, provided such property
was previously subdivided, and a tentative tract map shall be prepared
and processed in accordance with the provisions of Article I, Chapter
6 of the Subdivision Map Act and with the provisions of this title.
(Prior code § 9104.06; Ord. 855 § 3, 1994)
The provisions of Article I, Chapter 4, Sections 66473 et seq. of the Subdivision Map Act shall serve as guidelines and criteria for the approval, conditional approval or rejection of all subdivision applications. The city planner, division of land committee and the advisory agency shall respectively make recommendations concerning these criteria and guidelines. The city council shall disapprove any tentative tract map when any of the provisions of said Article I, Chapter 4 apply, or it may condition approval where applicable in order to mitigate those circumstances which otherwise would be cause for disapproval. The provisions of Titles
10,
12,
13,
15,
16 and
18 of this code shall also serve as guidelines and criteria for the approval, conditional approval or denial of subdivision applications. The city council may deny a subdivision application which fails to meet the requirements of Titles
10,
12,
13,
15,
16 and
18 of this code.
