A. An approved or conditionally approved tentative map shall expire twenty-four (24) months after its approval or conditioned approval.
B. The expiration of an approved or conditionally approved tentative map shall terminate all proceedings and no final map or parcel map of all or any portion of the real property included within the tentative map shall be filed without first processing a new tentative map.
C. The subdivider shall submit an application to extend a tentative map a minimum of thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the tentative map as allowed by Government Code § 66410 et seq. along with the fee as established by resolution of the City Council. An application to extend a tentative map will require a verification of current ownership affidavit or title report, plans, and any additional information for the Planning Department to evaluate if there are changed conditions or circumstances from the previously approved tentative map. The Planning Commission, as the advisory agency to the City Council, may approve a request for an extension and will review the request after a public notice has been prepared by the Planning Department and duly published for a minimum of ten (10) days in a local publication prior to the meeting. The map may be extended up to a total of five years, excepting additional time extensions periodically legislated by the State. The period of extension specified in this subdivision shall be in addition to the period of time provided by Section 16.18.010A. Prior to the expiration of an approved or conditionally approved tentative map, upon an application by the subdivider to extend that map, the map shall automatically be extended for 60 days or until the application for the extension is approved, conditionally approved, or denied. If the advisory agency denies a subdivider's application for extension, the subdivider may appeal to the City Council within fifteen (15) days after the advisory agency has denied the extension.
