DIVISION 4. REQUIREMENTS OF APPROVAL
(A) Approval shall be denied to any map for failure to meet or perform any requirement or condition imposed by the Subdivision Map Act or this chapter, including failure to submit all required information, plans, reports or agreements. A final map or parcel map shall be disapproved only for failure to meet or perform requirements or conditions which are applicable to the subdivision at the time of approval of the tentative subdivision map.
(B) Any such disapproval shall be accompanied by a finding identifying the requirements or conditions which have not been met or performed. Where the failure of any map to meet or perform any requirement or condition is the result of a technical and inadvertent error which, in the determination of the director, does not materially affect the validity of any map, the map may be approved.
(`64 Code, Sec. 27-50) (Ord. No. 1570, 1684, 2910)
Approval shall be denied to any map which is not consistent with the city's general plan or a specific plan adopted thereunder or which depicts a land division or a land use which is not compatible with the objectives, policies, general land uses and programs specified in the city's general plan.
(`64 Code, Sec. 27-51) (Ord. No. 1570)
(A) Approval and recommendation thereof shall be denied to any map by the director, city council or the commission on any of the following findings:
(1) The proposed map is not consistent with applicable general plan and specific plan;
(2) The design or improvement of the proposed development is not consistent with applicable general plan and specific plan;
(3) The site is not physically suitable for the type of development;
(4) The site is not physically suitable for the proposed density of development;
(5) The design of the development or the proposed improvements are likely to cause substantial environmental damage or to substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat;
(6) The design of the development or the type of improvement is likely to cause serious public health problems; and
(7) The design of the development or the type of improvement will conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of property within the proposed development; provided, however, that approval may be granted if it is found that alternate easements, for access or for use, will be provided, and that these will be substantially equivalent to the ones previously acquired by the public.
(B) Approval under this section shall not be denied to any final map or parcel map which is in substantial compliance with a valid previously approved tentative subdivision map; nor shall approval be denied to any map of a condominium project or a community apartment project because of design or location of buildings on the property shown on the map not violative of local ordinance or because of the manner in which air space is to be divided in conveying the condominium.
(`64 Code, Sec. 27-52) (Ord. No. 1570, 1684, 2367, 2445, 2910)
(A) Approval may be denied to any map if discharge of waste from the proposed development into an existing community sewer system would result in violation of existing requirements prescribed by a State regional water quality control board.
(B) The determination of water quality control requirements relating to every subdivision shall be made at the time of consideration for approval of any map.
(`64 Code, Sec. 27-54) (Ord. No. 1570)
(A) No map filed pursuant to the provisions of this chapter shall be approved until an environmental assessment has been made and, if necessary, until an environmental impact analysis is prepared, processed and considered.
(B) The subdivider shall provide such additional data and information and shall pay or deposit such fees as may be required for the preparation and processing of environmental review documents.
(`64 Code, Sec. 27-55) (Ord. No. 1570)
