(A) The improvements set forth in this chapter shall be required for all subdivisions unless the Planning Commission finds that due to the particular circumstances of the subdivision, said improvements are not necessary, are not desirable, or that alternatives are desired for the public health, safety and welfare, or are less damaging to the environment, or makes the determination to defer said improvements. The Planning Commission may defer frontage improvements for the following projects:
(1) Minor subdivisions where the property is built-out to its maximum density and no new traffic impacts will be generated by the subdivision.
(2) Minor subdivisions where no lots will be sold and no building permits for new, single-family dwellings will be applied for. A deed restriction prohibiting the sale of all unimproved lots and designating each lot as "non-buildable" until such time as the required frontage improvements are completed shall be required as a condition of approval.
(3) Large lots (as defined in § 23.07.001(C)) within the boundaries of any adopted specific plan and utilized for financing and/or planning purposes only, until further subdivision of the large lot parcels.
In order for the Planning Commission to defer frontage improvements, it must find that due to the particular circumstances of the subdivision, no additional traffic or road impacts will take place. The subdivider shall pay the expense of all required improvements.
(B) Large lots (as defined in § 23.07.001(C)) within the boundaries of any adopted specific plan and utilized for financing and/or planning purposes only otherwise are exempt from the provisions of this Chapter 23.17.
(C) No final map shall be presented to the Board of Supervisors or parcel map to the County Engineer for approval until the subdivider either completes the required improvements, or enters into an agreement with the county to complete the improvements at the subdivider's expense.
(D) Requirements for the construction of on- and off-site improvements for subdivisions of four or fewer parcels shall be noted by a statement on the parcel map, or on the certificate of waiver of the parcel map requirement.
