A. An application for lot line adjustment shall be made on such form and in such detail as prescribed by the city planner for each case. The city planner shall approve the application upon a finding that the application is clearly within the intent of California
Government Code, Title 7, Division 2, Subdivision Map Act, Section 66412(d), and the requested adjustment would not result in or be violative of any provisions of the Subdivision Map Act or Titles
17 and
18 of this code. Or, the city planner in any individual case may declare that public policy, based on a showing of substantial evidence, necessitates a filing for parcel map or final map proceedings.
B. The
city planner may require such maps, legal description, title reports
and other relevant information as may be necessary to sustain findings
of conformance to such codes and to establish parties of interest.
No application may be approved without consent of all parties of interest
except beneficiaries of rights-of-way or easements for public utilities
or similar uses when the proposed adjustment would not impair or interfere
with such easements.
C. The
city planner shall limit his/her review and approval to a determination
of whether or not the parcels resulting from the lot line adjustment
will conform to local zoning and building ordinances. The city planner
shall not impose conditions or exactions on the approval of a lot
line adjustment except to conform to local zoning and building ordinances,
or except to facilitate the relocation of existing utilities, infrastructure
or easements. No tentative map, parcel map or final map shall be required
as a condition to the approval of a lot line adjustment. No record
of survey shall be required for a lot line adjustment unless required
by Section 8762 of the
Business and Professions Code.
D. Approval
shall be in the form of a waiver of parcel map and issuance of a certificate
of compliance on a form provided by the city, and shall be effective
upon filing for record with the recorder of Los Angeles County. The
lot line adjustment shall also be reflected in a deed, which shall
be recorded.
