This chapter is enacted pursuant to the authority granted by Chapter 4.5 (commencing with Section 66498.1) of Division 2 of Title 7 the Government Code of the State of California (hereinafter referred to as the Vesting Tentative Map Statute).

(Ord. 4776 § 1 (part); November 12, 1986.)

If the Director of Community Development and Planning Department finds that the application is incomplete, the Director of Community Development and Planning Department shall notify the subdivider of the documents required to complete the application. If the Director of Community Development and Planning Department fails to notify the subdivider, the application is deemed to be incomplete and the applicant may request the Director of Community Development and Planning Department to notify the applicant of documents required to complete the application.
