Chapter 11.41 — PARCEL AND FINAL MAPS

After the approval or conditional approval of a tentative map and prior to the expiration of the tentative map, the subdivider may cause the real property included within the tentative map to be surveyed and a final map or parcel map prepared in accordance with the approved or conditionally approved tentative map.

The form, contents, accompanying data, and filing of final maps and parcel maps shall be governed by the provisions of this Chapter. Final maps and parcel maps shall be prepared by or under the direction of a person registered as a civil engineer prior to January 1, 1982 or a licensed land surveyor. Parcel maps for areas that fall within the FP Overlay District shall comply with the provisions of Chapter 11.14 and Chapter 10.30.

(a)

Multiple final maps relating to an approved or conditionally approved tentative subdivision map may be filed prior to the expiration of the tentative map if the subdivider, at the time the tentative subdivision map is filed, informs the Development Review Committee in writing of the subdivider's intention to file multiple final maps on the tentative subdivision map, or if after the filing of the tentative subdivision map, the subdivider and Development Review Committee concur in the filing of multiple final maps. In providing the notice, the subdivider shall not be required to define the number or configuration of the proposed multiple maps.

(b)

The decision-making authority shall approve the sequence of map approvals. The filing of a final map on a portion of an approved or conditionally approved tentative subdivision map shall not invalidate any part of the tentative map.

The public improvement agreement executed by the subdivider shall provide for the construction of improvements as required to constitute a logical and orderly development of the whole subdivision.
