In accordance with Article 1 of Chapter 2 of the Subdivision
Map Act, a final map shall be required for all subdivisions creating
five or more parcels, five or more condominiums, or a community apartment
project containing five or more parcels except under those circumstances
listed in Section 66426 of the Subdivision Map Act. Parcel maps are
required for all divisions of land not requiring a final map except
as exempted by Sections 66412 and 66428 of the Subdivision Map Act.
(Ord. 3790 §1, 1975; Ord. 5380, 2005)
Subsequent to the approval or conditional approval of a tentative
map by the Advisory Agency or the Appeal Board, the subdivider shall
cause a final or parcel map and all other maps and plans in connection
therewith to be prepared by a registered civil engineer or licensed
land surveyor in accordance with a completed survey of the subdivision,
in substantial compliance with the approved tentative map, and in
full compliance with State law and this municipal code. For parcel
maps, in lieu of a completed survey of the subdivision, the map may
be compiled from recorded or filed data when sufficient survey information
exists on filed maps to locate and retrace the exterior boundary lines
of the parcel map if the location of at least one of these boundary
lines can be established from an existing monumented line.
(Ord. 3790 §1, 1975; Ord. 5380, 2005)
The contents and form of final maps shall be governed by Article
2 of Chapter 2 of the Subdivision Map Act. The contents and form of
parcel maps shall be governed by Article 3 of Chapter 2 of the Subdivision
Map Act.
(Ord. 3790 §1, 1975; Ord. 5380, 2005)
A. The
final or parcel map and construction plans shall be accompanied by
such certifications, test results, reports, and other data required
to establish compliance with conditions of approval of the tentative
map and all provisions of this code and applicable State law.
B. In
addition to the requirements described in the Subdivision Map Act,
the final or parcel map shall contain or be accompanied by the following
information:
1. A
Title Sheet. Below the title shall be a subtitle consisting of a general
description of all the property being subdivided, by reference to
deeds, subdivisions, or sectional surveys. References to tracts and
subdivisions shall be identical to the original records, with proper
notation as to the book and page of the record. The map shall give
the basis of bearing, north point, scale, graphic scale and location
of setback lines different from or in addition to those required by
the Zoning Ordinance. Maps filed for the purpose of reverting subdivided
land to acreage shall be conspicuously so marked.
2. Easements
and Rights-of-Way. The final or parcel map shall show all easements
to which the lots are subject. The easements shall be clearly identified
and proper reference to the records given. Easements being dedicated
shall be so indicated in the certificate of dedication. If the easement
is not definitely located of record, a statement as to the easement
shall appear on the title sheet.
3. Accompanying
Data. The final or parcel map shall be accompanied by:
a. Where applicable, traverse sheets and work sheets showing the closure,
within allowable limits of error, of the exterior boundaries and of
each block and lot of the subdivision.
b. A final grading plan, where required by the Advisory Agency or Appeal
Board, including slope protection specifications.
c. A copy of the protective covenants, if any, to be recorded.
d. All fees, bonds or guarantees required by the provisions of the Subdivision

4. Fees.
All fees for map checking, plan checking and inspection shall be established
by resolution of the City Council.
(Ord. 3790 §1, 1975; Ord. 5380, 2005)
Prior to the submission of a final or parcel map to the City
Council for approval, the final or parcel map and accompanying data
which satisfy the Subdivision Map Act and the municipal code shall
be submitted to the City Engineer. Once all required fees have been
paid and all required maps, plans, calculations, and other data have
been filed with the Public Works Department, the City Engineer shall
examine the final or parcel map and the accompanying data as to correctness
of surveying data and computations, and such other matters as require
checking to insure compliance with the provisions of State law and
the municipal code. Within 20 days of receipt of the final or parcel
map and all required accompanying data, the City Engineer shall either
(i) endorse his or her approval and transmit one copy to the City
Council and one copy to the Community Development Department, together
with such other matters as are required to enable the City Council
to consider the map; or (ii) return the map to the subdivider, together
with a statement setting forth the grounds for its return.
(Ord. 3790 §1, 1975; Ord. 5380, 2005)
If, at the time of approval of the final or parcel map by the
City Council, any public improvements required by the City pursuant
to the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act or the municipal code
have not been completed and accepted in accordance with standards
established by the City and applicable at the time of approval or
conditional approval of the tentative map, the City Council, as a
condition precedent to the approval of the final or parcel map, shall
require the subdivider to enter into one of the following agreements:
A. An
agreement with the City upon mutually agreeable terms to thereafter
complete such improvements at the subdivider's expense.
B. An
agreement with the City to thereafter (1) initiate and consummate
proceedings under an appropriate special assessment act for the financing
and completion of all such improvements, or (2) if not completed under
such special assessment act, to complete such improvements at the
subdivider's expense.
Performance of such agreements described herein shall be guaranteed by a security specified in Chapter 5 of the Subdivision Map Act and Section 27.11.030 of this title.
