Rocklin Municipal Code Art. III Merger

Notwithstanding any other provision of this title, two or more contiguous parcels or lots which have been subdivided under the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act and applicable local ordinance enacted pursuant thereto shall not merge by virtue of the fact that such lots or parcels are held by the same owner, unless any one of such lots or parcels does not conform to standards for minimum lot size and at least one of such contiguous parcels or lots is not developed with a building for which a lawful permit has been issued, in which case such parcels shall be merged.

(Ord. 365 § 18.101, 1978).

Whenever the planning director has knowledge that real property has merged pursuant to Section 16.40.060, he shall cause written notice to be given to the owner or owners of the parcels or lots to be affected by the merger. The notice shall advise the owner or owners of the intention to record a notice of merger and specify the time, date and place of a hearing by the commission at which the owners may present evidence why such notice shall not be recorded. The notice shall be given not less than thirty days prior to the hearing by the commission. The commission shall determine whether a notice of merger shall be recorded.

(Ord. 365 § 18.102, 1978).
