The ordinance codified in this chapter is enacted pursuant to
the authority granted by Chapter 4.5 (commencing with Section 66498.1)
of Division 2 of Title 7 of the
Government Code of the State of California
(hereinafter referred to as the Vesting Tentative Map Statute), and
may be cited as the "Vesting Tentative Map Ordinance."
It is the purpose of this chapter to establish procedures necessary
for the implementation of the Vesting Tentative Map Statute, and to
supplement the provisions of this title. Except as otherwise set forth
in the provisions of this chapter, the provisions of this title shall
apply to the Vesting Tentative Map Ordinance.
No land shall be subdivided pursuant to a vesting tentative
map or vesting tentative parcel map for any purpose which is inconsistent
with the general plan and any applicable specific plan or not permitted
by Title 17 or other applicable provisions of this municipal code.
Applications for approval of vesting tentative maps and vesting
tentative parcel maps shall be considered by the planning commission
in a public hearing. The decision of the planning commission to approve,
conditionally approve or deny approval of such maps shall be final
unless the decision is appealed to the city council pursuant to the
provisions of Section 16.12.290.
Except as provided in this section and subsections A and B hereof,
a vesting tentative map or vesting tentative parcel map shall be filed
in the same form and have the same contents, accompanying data and
reports and shall be processed in the same manner as set forth in
this title for a tentative map or tentative parcel map.

the time a vesting tentative map is filed, it shall have printed conspicuously
on its face the words "Vesting Tentative Map." If the map is a vesting
tentative parcel map, the words "Vesting Tentative Parcel Map" shall

B. A planned development permit application, pursuant to Section
17.28.030 shall be filed concurrently with the vesting tentative map and/or vesting tentative parcel map and shall be processed concurrently therewith. A vesting tentative map or vesting tentative parcel map shall not be approved if all other discretionary permits or approvals have not been approved either prior to or concurrently with approval of the map. The planned development permit application shall comply fully with the requirements of Section
17.28.030 and, in addition, shall include the following specific details in a form satisfactory to the community development director and the city engineer:
