A subdivider seeking approval of a tentative map for a subdivision of five or more parcels shall file an application for tentative map approval consistent with the requirements of this title. The application shall consist of the following:
A. A tentative map, consistent with the requirements of sections 17.828.050 and 17.828.060.
B. A completed city application packet, including an environmental checklist.
C. The following drawings, statements and other data, and as many additional copies thereof as may be required, shall be filed on or with the tentative map:
1. A vicinity or key map of appropriate scale and covering sufficient adjoining territory so as to clearly indicate nearby street patterns, major access streets, property lines, other adjacent properties in the subdivider's owner-ship, and other significant features which will have a bearing upon the proposed subdivision and its location and relationship to surrounding areas.
2. A statement of existing and proposed zoning and existing and proposed uses of the property with the approximate areas of the proposed uses by type and the total area of the subdivision.
3. A preliminary soil investigation and geological reconnaissance report by a registered civil engineer specializing and recognized in soil mechanics and foundation engineering for every subdivision for which a final map is re-quired. If the director of public works knows the soil conditions in the proposed subdivision, the director of public works may waive the submission of this preliminary report.
If the preliminary soils report indicates the presence of critically expansive soils or other soil problems, includ-ing seepage which, if not corrected, would lead to structural defects, a soils investigation of each lot in the sub-division may be required by the director of public works as a condition precedent to consideration of the tenta-tive map by the subdivision review committee. The soils investigation shall be done in the manner provided in section 66491 of the California Government Code.
4. A preliminary grading plan. Submission of the preliminary plan may be waived by the director of utilities when he or she determines that the submission of said plan is not required for proper grading, flood hazard mitigation and erosion control of the proposed subdivision.
5. Applications for any tentative map design deviation that may be proposed, together with supporting drawings and statements and such other data as may be required by the provisions of chapter 17.842.
6. All other data required as a prerequisite to approval of the tentative map, including plans, reports, fees or other requirement.
7. With respect to tentative maps for residential condominium conversion projects, a conditional use permit for such a conversion project is required pursuant to chapter 17.716. The planning director or designated repre-sentative may waive this requirement if at the time of the filing of the tentative map the subdivider, in writing, irrevocably offers to the advisory agency and city council to extend the time limits specified in the subdivision map act for reporting and acting upon the tentative map by said bodies. The extension shall be for such periods of time as are reasonably necessary to permit the processing, review, and final action on the conditional use permit concurrently with the tentative map.
D. A fee in an amount prescribed by city council resolution. (Ord. 2017-0009 § 22)
