Upon acceptance of the final map and accompanying documents, fees and materials for filing, the City Engineer shall cause the same to be examined, and if found to be in substantial conformity with the approved tentative map and all amendments, conditions, modifications and provisions made or required by the Council, and if found to be complete, technically correct, in conformity with improvement plans and specifications, and in compliance with the requirements of this title, planned street lines and other applicable specific plans and ordinances, shall execute the City Engineer's certificate on the map and shall file the map and accompanying materials with the City Clerk. No final map shall be certified until the required improvements have been installed or agreed to be installed in accordance with Chapter
17.12 DMC, Subdivision Improvements.
Should the map or other accompanying documents, fees or materials be found to be incomplete or incorrect in any respect, the subdivider shall be advised in writing, by mail, of the changes or additions that must be made before the map may be certified. If the defect is the result of a technical and inadvertent error which, in the opinion of the City Engineer, does not materially affect the validity of the map, the City Engineer may waive the defect and execute his certificate of approval.
The City Engineer may refuse to approve the recording of a final map governing only a portion of a tentative map when in the process of checking the final map he or she determines that said portion does not by itself provide adequate or satisfactory access, design or improvements and therefore does not conform to the design and improvement of the subdivision as indicated by the approved tentative map.
The City Engineer must act on the final map within the time period prescribed by the Subdivision Map Act.
