The subdivider shall present to the officer designated in the rules of the Planning Commission, at least 15 days prior to the meeting at which it is to be presented to the Planning Commission for official filing, 10 copies of the tentative map, with accompanying data and statements, made in accordance with the requirements of this section, together with such additional copies as may be required for transmittal to the designated official of any adjoining city or county which has requested the same, as provided in the Subdivision Map Act. The subdivider shall at the time of filing the tentative map pay a City filing fee established by resolution of the City Council. If the subdivider is not the record owner (or owner of record) of the property proposed for subdivision, there shall be filed a written authorization by the record owner (or owner of record) authorizing the subdivider to act in his behalf.
The officer to whom the map is presented shall examine the map and shall not accept such map unless the same conforms to all legal requirements and is accompanied by all information necessary for its proper consideration.
Notices shall be given by mail, postage prepaid, not less than 10 days before the date set for the hearing to owners and occupants of property within a radius of 100 feet of the external boundaries of the property described in the application or action, using for this purpose addresses from the last equalized assessment roll of the County and the City's latest copy of Pacific Telephone's "Reverse Telephone Directory" for this area. Aside from any other development fees or deposits, the applicant shall furnish to the City payment for contract services to compile and type the names and addresses of the owners and occupants on envelopes containing the public notice. The failure to send notice by mail to any such property owner or occupant, where the address of such owner is not shown upon the last equalized assessment roll of the County or the City's latest copy of Pacific Telephone "Reverse Telephone Directory" for this area, shall not invalidate any proceedings in connection with any action.
In addition to the notice hereinabove provided for, a notice shall be sent by certified or registered mail not less than 10 days before the date set for the hearing to the applicant.
Upon acceptance, such officer shall give a receipt for the map, accompanying data and fee. Such acceptance, however, shall not preclude the securing of additional information from the subdivider necessary for the proper consideration of the tentative map. Such officer shall present the map for filing to the Planning Commission at a regular meeting thereof. The time of official filing of the tentative subdivision map shall be the time at which the same is accepted by the Planning Commission for that purpose upon finding that the map conforms to all legal requirements and is accompanied by all information necessary for its proper consideration.
The Planning Commission shall, within three days after the official filing of the tentative map, with accompanying data and statements, transmit copies thereof to the authorized representative of the City Council who shall check the improvements which shall be required under the provisions of Chapter 9.15 SMC and any easements required in connection with such improvements.
The Planning Commission shall also, within three days, forward copies of the tentative map to the City, County and State officials requesting the same who may make recommendations with respect to the subdivision at the next Planning Commission meeting.
(Ord. 430 § 8, 1950; Ord. 521 § 3, 1957; Ord. 852 § 1, 1974; Ord. 870 § 2, 1974; Ord. 934 § 1, 1978; Ord. 984 § 5, 1981)
The Planning Commission shall determine whether the tentative map is in conformity with the provisions of law and of this title, and, upon that basis, shall within 50 days after the official filing of the tentative map, unless such time shall have been extended by mutual agreement, by resolution approve, conditionally approve, or disapprove the same and shall report such action to the City Council, which Council shall act upon the report within 10 days or at its next succeeding regular meeting after receipt of the report, and the City Council shall give final approval, conditional approval, or disapproval of the tentative map.
