Approval of a vesting tentative map confers a vested right on the subdivider to proceed with development in substantial compliance with the ordinances, policies and standards in effect on the date that the application for the vesting tentative map was complete. However, such vested rights of the subdivider may be denied only under the following circumstances:
(a) Where recognition of the vested right would place the residence of the subdivision or the immediate community, or both in a condition dangerous to their health or safety, or both;
(b) Recognition of the vested right would be a violation of state or federal law.
(Ord. 537 § 2 (part), 1985)
