Sutter Creek Municipal Code Ch. 17.28 Boundary Line Adjustments

(§66412) No record of survey or parcel map shall be required for a boundary line adjustment, meaning the relocation of the boundary line of adjoining property, when such relocation by deed does not result in the creation of an additional, separate and distinct parcel of real property. Such boundary line adjustment is not a subdivision of real property and is excluded from the provisions of this title; provided the boundary line adjustment is approved by the city engineer and no easements of record are affected by the adjustment.

A boundary line adjustment in accordance with this section shall be reflected in a deed which shall be recorded within six months of boundary line adjustment approval by the city. The deed shall make specific reference to the date of approval by the city.

(Ord. 321A, 2007)

Whenever a proposed boundary line adjustment requires the relocation of existing utilities, easements, or other public improvements, a record of survey or parcel map shall be recorded. No tentative map will be required for any parcel map required by this section.

(Ord. 321A, 2007)
