A. 
Any person owning real property or a vendee of that person pursuant to a contract of sale of the real property may request a determination whether such real property complies with the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act and this title. Applications for a certificate shall be made to the Director of Public Works/City Engineer on forms prescribed by the Director of Public Works, and shall be accompanied by a map legibly drawn to scale showing the dimensions of the subject property, the location and use of all structures on the property with the distances from the structures to the parcel boundaries.
B. 
The application shall also be accompanied by a legible copy of the current owners deed or contract of sale, and maps and deeds of all other property owned by the applicant that is contiguous to the subject real property.
C. 
The application shall be accompanied by a reasonable fee established by resolution of the City Council to cover the cost of issuing and recording the certificate of compliance.
(Prior code § 30-40; Ord. 89-623 § 1, 1989)
Within thirty days after receipt of the completed application, the Director of Public Works/City Engineer shall submit the matter to the Planning Commission. Within sixty days thereafter, the Planning Commission shall make a final determination as to whether or not the real property complies with the applicable provisions of the Subdivisions Map Act and this title.
(Prior code § 30-40; Ord. 89-623 § 1, 1989)
If such real property is in compliance, the Director of Public Works/City Engineer shall be directed to have a certificate of compliance filed for record with the County Recorder. The certificate of compliance shall identify the real property and shall state that the division thereof complies with applicable provisions of the Subdivision Map Act and this title.
(Prior code § 30-40; Ord. 89-623 § 1, 1989)
If it is determined that such real property does not comply with the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act or of this title, the Planning Commission shall issue a certificate of compliance or a conditional certificate of compliance. The Planning Commission may, as a condition to granting a certificate of compliance, impose any conditions which would have been applicable to the division of the property at the same time the applicant acquired his or her interest therein, and which had been established at that time by the Subdivision Map Act or this title, except that where the applicant was the owner of record at the time of the initial violation of the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act or this title who by a grant of the real property created a parcel or parcels in violation of the Subdivision Map Act or this title, and the person is the current owner of record of one or more of the parcels which were created as a result of the grant in violation of the Subdivision Map Act or this title, then the Planning Commission may impose any condition which would be applicable to a current division of property.
(Prior code § 30-40; Ord. 89-623 § 1, 1989)
Upon making the determination and establishing the conditions, the Director of Public Works/City Engineer shall be directed to have a conditional certificate of compliance filed for record with the County Recorder. The certificate shall serve as a notice to the property owner or vendee who has applied for the certificate pursuant to Sections 17.24.020 through 17.24.070 of this chapter, or grantee of the property owner, or any subsequent transferee or assignee of the property that the fulfillment and implementation of these conditions shall be required prior to subsequent issuance of a permit or other grant of approval for development of the property.
(Prior code § 30-40; Ord. 89-623 § 1, 1989)
Compliance with these conditions shall not be required until the time which a permit or other grant of approval for development of the property is issued by the City.
(Prior code § 30-40; Ord. 89-623 § 1, 1989)
