An application for merger may be approved by the city planner after review by other affected departments/divisions and the city planner has determined that the merger is consistent with the applicable general plan, any applicable specific plan and zoning standards other than minimum lot size or density standards. Prior to approval, all encumbrances, including bonded indebtedness, shall be modified to apply uniformly to the entire modified parcel, rather than to the portions of the modified parcel corresponding to the separate lots prior to the merger.
