(A) The tentative map shall be prepared in a manner acceptable to the Planning Department and shall be prepared by a registered civil engineer.
(B) The tentative map shall be clearly and legibly drawn on one sheet and contain not less than the following:
(1) A title which shall contain the subdivision number, subdivision name, and type of subdivision.
(2) Name and address of legal owner, subdivider, and person preparing the map (including registration number).
(3) Sufficient legal description to define the boundary of the proposed subdivision.
(4) Date, north arrow, scale, and contour interval.
(5) Existing and proposed land use.
(6) 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.
(7) Existing topography of the proposed site and at least 100 feet beyond its boundary, including but not limited to:
(a) Existing contours at two feet intervals if the existing ground slope is less than 10% and at not less than five foot intervals for existing ground slopes equal to or greater than 10%. Contour intervals shall not be spread more than 150 feet apart. Existing contours shall be represented by dashed lines or by screened lines.
(b) Type and circumference of existing trees. Any tree proposed to be removed shall be so indicated.
(c) The approximate location and outline of existing structures identified by type. Buildings to be removed shall be so marked.
(d) The approximate location of all areas subject to inundation or storm water overflow and the location, width, and direction of flow of each watercourse.
(e) The location, pavement, and right-of-way width, grade, and name of existing streets or highways.
(f) The widths, location, and identity of all existing easements.
(g) 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.
(h) The approximate location of the 60, 65, and 70 CNEL (Community NOISE Equivalent Level) contours, if any.
(8) Proposed improvements to be shown shall include but not be limited to:
(a) 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.
(b) The location and radius of all curb returns and cul-de-sacs.
(c) The location, width, and purpose of all easements.
(d) The angle of intersecting streets if such angle deviates from a right angle by more than four degrees.
(e) The approximate lot layout and the approximate dimensions of each lot and of 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.
(f) Proposed contours at two-foot intervals shall be shown if the existing ground slope is less than 10% and not at less than five-foot intervals for existing ground slopes greater than or equal to 10%. A separate grading plan may be submitted.
(g) Proposed recreation sites, trails, and parks for private or public use.
(h) Proposed common areas and areas to be dedicated to public open space.
(i) The 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.
(9) The name or names of any geologist or soils engineer whose services were required in the preparation of the design of the tentative map.
(10) The source and date of existing contours.
(11) All lettering size shall be -inch minimum.
(12) Certificates for execution by the Secretary of the Planning Commission indicating the approval of the tentative map and the date thereof by the Planning Commission, and a certificate by the City Clerk indicating the approval by the City Council if the map was reviewed by the City Council.
(13) If the subdivider plans to develop the site as shown on the tentative map in units, then the subdivider shall show the proposed units and their proposed sequence of construction on the tentative map.
(14) The Planning Department may waive any of the foregoing tentative map requirements whenever it finds that the type of subdivision is such as not to necessitate compliance with these requirements, or that other circumstances justify such waiver. The Planning Department may require other such drawings, data, or other information as deemed necessary.
