After a final or parcel map is filed in the office of the county recorder, it may be amended by a certificate of correction or an amending map:
(a) 
To correct an error in any course or distance shown thereon;
(b) 
To show any course or distance that was omitted therefrom;
(c) 
To correct an error in the description of the real property shown on the map;
(d) 
To indicate monuments set after the death, disability or retirement from practice of the engineer or surveyor charged with responsibilities for setting monuments;
(e) 
To show the proper location of any monument which has been changed in location, or character, or originally was shown at the wrong location or incorrectly as to its character.
(f) 
To correct any other type of map error or omission as approved by the city engineer, which does not affect any property right. Errors and omissions may include, but are not limited to, lot numbers, acreage, street names and identification of adjacent record maps. Error does not include changes in courses or distances from which an error is not ascertainable from the data shown on the final or parcel map.
(g) 
To make modifications when there are changes which make any or all of the conditions of the map no longer appropriate or necessary and that the modifications do not impose any additional burden on the present fee owner of the property, and if the modifications do not alter any right, title or interest in the real property reflected on the recorded map. The modification shall be set for public hearing by the planning commission, in the case of a final map, or the subdivision committee, in the case of a parcel map, in accordance with Section 36.04.070 or 36.06.040 of this chapter, as the case may be. The planning commission or subdivision committee shall confine the hearing to consideration of, and action on, the proposed modification.
(Ord. 1407 § 1; Ord. 2678, 11/4/2025)
The amending map or certificate or correction shall be prepared by a registered civil engineer or licensed land surveyor. The form and contents of the amending map shall conform to the requirements of Sections 36.05.040 and 36.05.050 if a final map, and Section 36.06.090(b) if a parcel map. The certificate of correction shall set forth in detail the corrections made and show the names of the present fee owners of the property affected by the correction.
(Ord. 1407 § 1; Ord. 2678, 11/4/2025)
The amending map or certificate of correction, complete as to final form, shall be submitted to the city engineer for review and approval.
The city engineer shall examine the amending map or certificate of correction and if the only changes made are those set forth in Section 36.13.010, this fact shall be certified by the city engineer on the amending map or certificate of correction.
(Ord. 1407 § 1; Ord. 2678, 11/4/2025)
The amending map or certificate of correction certified by the city engineer shall be filed in the office of the county recorder. Upon such filing, the county recorder shall index the names of the fee owners and the appropriate subdivision designation shown on the amending map or certificate or correction in the general index and map index, respectively. Thereupon, the original map shall be deemed to have been conclusively so corrected, and thereafter shall impart constructive notice of all such corrections in the same manner as though set forth upon the original map.
