A subdivider shall place on one or more additional map sheets all additional survey and map information including building setback lines, flood hazard zone lines, seismic lines and setbacks, limits of proposed street widening, approximate slope and drainage facility lines, geologic mapping, archaeological sites, solar notes, percolation certificate, soil notes, inundation lines, drainage swale lines or other information which may be required as a condition of a tentative map. The additional sheets shall indicate their relationship to the final map and shall contain a statement that the additional information is for informational purposes, describing conditions as of the date of filing, and is not intended to affect record title interest. The additional map sheets may also contain a notification that the information is derived from public records or reports and its inclusion in the map does not imply the correctness or sufficiency of these records or reports by the preparer of the map.
(Added by Ord. No. 7262 (N.S.), effective 2-13-87; amended by Ord. No. 10037 (N.S.), effective 3-26-10)
(a) Unless otherwise provided in this division a final subdivision map shall be prepared and filed pursuant to an approved tentative map for every major subdivision.
(b) In lieu of filing a final map, unless otherwise required by the SMA, a subdivider may file a parcel map for a major subdivision described in Government Code section 66426(a), (b), (c), (d) or (e). The parcel map shall comply with the requirements of chapter 8 of this division.
(Amended by Ord. No. 6508 (N.S.), operative 3-1-83; amended by Ord. No. 9675 (N.S.), effective 10-22-04; amended by Ord. No. 10037 (N.S.), effective 3-26-10)
Every final map shall:
(a) Contain a definite description of the land subdivided by references to recorded deeds, recorded maps and official United States surveys. Reference to tracts, recorded deeds and recorded maps shall be spelled out, worded identically with original records and show the book and page of records or map numbers.
(b) Use the California Coordinate System for its "basis of bearings" and express all measured and calculated bearing values in terms of that system. The angle of grid divergence from a true meridian (mapping angle) and the north point of the map shall appear on each map sheet. The basis of bearings may be established by using existing horizontal control stations meeting the standards of the California Public Resources Code. If the County Surveyor determines that global positioning satellite readings and first order control monuments are not available, the County Surveyor may waive the requirements of subsection (i) below and the use of the California Coordinate System as the basis of bearings. If these requirements are waived, two record monuments shown on a recorded map or an astronomic observation shall be required instead, subject to the County Surveyor's approval.
(c) Show all easements to which the land is subject or to be subjected.
(d) Clearly indicate existing monuments found and describe them.
(e) Show the acreage of all parcels containing one acre or more.
(f) Clearly indicate, by description or a distinctive boundary line, any area subject to flooding at times of high tide or heavy rainfall and state that the area is subject to flooding at times of high tide or heavy rainfall. These areas shall be fixed by the Planning Commission or the Board at the time the tentative map is approved or conditionally approved.
(g) Show by a dotted line separating from public streets, all private ways, easements and other rights of way shown on the map that are not to be accepted as public streets. The map shall also clearly designate the nature and manner in which each private way, private easement and other private right of way is reserved or granted.
(h) Display on each map sheet, the tract number assigned by the Department for the subdivision. If the tentative map contains two or more units and the final map is to be filed separately by unit, the tract number shall also contain a numerical unit suffix assigned by DPW. The tract number shall be the only designated name of the subdivision appearing on the map and shall be preceded by the words "County of San Diego Tract."
(i) The following rules shall apply to field observed connections:
(1) When a survey for a final map was completed prior to January 1, 2000 and the survey is based on State plane coordinates, the survey shall show two measured ties from the boundary of the subject property to existing horizontal control stations having California Coordinate values of the second order accuracy or better, as provided in the County of San Diego's Horizontal Control book. These tie lines to the existing control shall be shown in relation to the California Coordinate System using grid bearings and grid distances. All other distances shown on the map shall be shown as ground distances. A combined factor for conversion of grid-to-ground distances shall also be shown on the map.
(2) When a survey for a final map was completed after December 31, 1999 and the survey is based on State plane coordinates, the survey shall show two measured ties from the boundary of the subject property to existing horizontal control stations having California Coordinate values of first order accuracy or better, as provided in the County of San Diego's Horizontal Control book or directly to the County's real time GPS network. These tie lines to the existing control shall be shown in relation to the California Coordinate System using grid bearings and grid distances. All other distances shown on the map shall be shown as ground distances. A combined factor for conversion of grid-to-ground distances shall be shown on the map.
(3) For purposes of this subsection, the date of the survey for the field observed connections shall be the date of survey as indicated in the surveyor's or engineer's certificate shown on the final map.
