Fremont Municipal Code Art. I General Provisions

(a) A public hearing before the commission shall be held for each tentative map requiring a final map and for each tentative parcel map referred to the commission by the planning manager.

(b) A notice including the time, date and place of public hearing, a general description of the location of the proposed subdivision, the identity of the hearing body and a general explanation of the matter to be considered shall be given at least 10 days prior to the date of such hearing. The notice shall be given by one publication in a newspaper of general circulation published and circulated within the city and by mailed notice to owners of real property within 300 feet of the property proposed to be subdivided. The names and addresses of such owners as shown on the current tax roll records of the county assessor of Alameda County shall be used for giving notice pursuant to this section. In lieu of the assessment roll, records of the county assessor containing more recent information may be used.

(c) The subdivider shall at the time of filing of a tentative map provide a list of all owners of real property within 300 feet of the proposed subdivision, including the owner of the subject property, plus a list of local service agencies as determined by the planning manager. A stamped and addressed envelope for each such property owner and agency shall also be submitted.

(d) Failure to receive the notice required by this section shall not invalidate any action taken pursuant to this chapter. (Ord. 1050 § 1, 6-10-75; Ord. 1659 § 3, 5-7-85; amended during 2012 reformat. 1990 Code § 8-1400.)

Fees for the processing of tentative, final, and parcel maps, and for other procedures required or authorized by this title, shall be as established by resolution of the council. Payment of required fees shall be a prerequisite to the processing of such maps and the undertaking of other procedures for which fees are required.

If additional tentative maps or requests covering the same subdivision and involving only minor revisions or amendments of the initial map are filed, no additional fee will be required. A new fee will be required, however, for any new tentative map after a previous tentative map has expired, or for any requested revision or amendment to a tentative map which the planning manager finds and determines will involve substantial time by city staff personnel to process such request. (Ord. 1050 § 1, 6-10-75; amended during 2012 reformat. 1990 Code § 8-1401.)

There is hereby established a committee which shall be known as the city technical coordinating committee. Such committee shall consist of the planning manager, city engineer, chief of police, and fire chief, each of whom may designate one or more staff members to serve on the committee in their place.

At the time of filing a tentative map, the planning manager shall schedule meetings of the city technical coordinating committee to review and make recommendations regarding the map and any related plans. Such recommendations shall be presented to the planning manager for consideration in making a written report to the planning commission. After the committee meetings, representatives of the committee shall meet with the subdivider to present recommendations of the committee, the planning manager, and other public or private agencies having an interest in the proposed tentative map. (Ord. 1050 § 1, 6-10-75; Ord. 1659 § 3, 5-7-85; amended during 2012 reformat. 1990 Code § 8-1402.)
