The tentative map shall be prepared in a manner acceptable to the Department of Community Development and shall be prepared by a registered civil engineer, or licensed land surveyor, as applicable. The tentative map shall be clearly and legibly drawn on one sheet and contain not less than the following:
(A) A title which shall contain the subdivision name, and type of subdivision (such as, planned development, condominium, and the like).
(B) Name, address, and phone number of legal owner, subdivider, and person preparing the map (including registration number).
(C) Sufficient legal description to define the boundary of the proposed subdivision.
(D) Date, north arrow, scale, and contour interval.
(E) Existing and proposed land use.
(F) A vicinity map showing roads, adjoining subdivisions, towns, creeks, railroads, and other data sufficient to locate the proposed subdivision and show its relation to the community.
(G) Existing topography of the proposed site and at least 25 feet beyond its boundary, including but not limited to:
(1) Contour lines having the following intervals (the date and the method of developing the contours shall be stated):
(a) Two-foot contour intervals for ground slopes between level and 5%, plus spot elevations as required.
(b) Five-foot contour intervals for ground slopes exceeding 5% but less than 25%.
(c) Ten-foot or 20-foot contour intervals for ground slopes exceeding 25%.
(d) For subdivisions with no lot less than 20 acres, aerial planimetric maps without contours and blow-up of USGS contours may be submitted in lieu of a more detailed contour map.
(2) Types and size of existing trees shall be indicated. Any trees proposed to be removed shall be so indicated. Trees will be retained wherever possible to preserve the character of the area.
(3) The approximate location and outline of existing structures identified by type. Buildings to be removed shall be so marked.
(4) The approximate location of all areas subject to inundation or stormwater overflow and the location, width, and direction of flow of each watercourse.
(5) The location, pavement, and right-of-way width, grade and name of existing streets or highways.
(6) The widths, location, and identity of all existing easements.
(7) The location and size of existing sanitary sewers, water mains and storm drains. The approximate slope of existing sewers and storm drains shall be indicated. The location of existing overhead utility lines on peripheral streets.
(8) The approximate location of the 60, 65, and 70 CNEL (Community Noise Equivalent Level) contours, if any.
(9) For proposed subdivisions in the coastal zone, the location of environmentally sensitive habitat areas and natural hazards, as designated in the coastal land use plan.
(H) Proposed improvements to be shown shall include but not be limited to:
(1) The location, grade, centerline radius and arc length of curves, pavement, and right-of-way, width, and name of all streets. Typical sections of all streets shall be shown.
(2) The location and radius of all curb returns and cul-de-sacs.
(3) The location, width, and purpose of all easements.
(4) The angle of intersecting streets if such angle deviates from a right angle by more than four degrees.
(5) The approximate layout and area and the approximate dimensions of each lot and each building site. Engineering data shall show the approximate finished grading of each lot, the preliminary design of all grading, the elevation of proposed building pads, the top and toe of cut and fill slopes to scale and the number of each lot.
(6) Proposed recreation sites, trails, greenways and parks for private or public use.
(7) Proposed common areas and areas to be dedicated to public open space.
(8) The approximate location and size of sanitary sewers, water mains and storm drains. Proposed slopes and approximate elevations of sanitary sewers and storm drains shall be indicated.
(I) The name or names of any geologist or soils engineer whose services were required in the preparation of the design of the tentative map.
(J) If the subdivider plans to develop the site as shown on the tentative map in units, then he shall show the proposed units and their proposed sequence of construction, if known, on the tentative map.
(K) The Director of Community Development may waive any of the foregoing tentative map requirements whenever he finds that the type of subdivision is such as not to necessitate compliance with these requirements, or may require other such drawings, data, or other information as deemed necessary.
