A merger of parcels becomes effective when the City of Thousand Oaks causes to be filed for record with the recorder of the county in which the real property is located, a notice of merger specifying the names of the record owner and particularly describing the real property.
(§ 1, Ord. 974-NS, eff. September 8, 1987)
Prior to recording a notice of merger the City of Thousand Oaks shall cause to be mailed by certified mail to the then current record owner of the property a notice of intention to determine status, notifying the owner that the affected parcels may be merged pursuant to standards specified in Section 9-3.1210 and advising the owner of the opportunity to request a hearing on determination of status and to present evidence at the hearing that the property does not meet the criteria for merger. The notice of intention to determine status shall be filed for record with the recorder of the county in which the real property is located on the date that notice is mailed to the property owner.
(§ 1, Ord. 974-NS, eff. September 8, 1987)
At any time within thirty (30) days after recording of the notice of intention to determine status, the owner of the affected property may file with the City of Thousand Oaks a request for hearing on determination of status.
(§ 1, Ord. 974-NS, eff. September 8, 1987)
Upon receiving a request for hearing on determination of status from the owner of the affected property pursuant to Section 9-3.1213, the City of Thousand Oaks shall fix a time, date, and place for a hearing to be conducted by the Planning Commission, and shall notify the property owner of the time, date and place for the hearing by certified mail. The hearing shall be conducted no more than sixty (60) days following the City’s receipt of the property owner’s request for the hearing, but may be postponed or continued with the mutual consent of the City and the property owner.
(§ 1, Ord. 974-NS, eff. September 8, 1987)
(a) At the hearing, the property owner shall be given the opportunity to present any evidence that the affected property does not meet the standards for merger specified in Section 9-3.1210.
(b) At the conclusion of the hearing, the City shall make a determination that the affected parcels are to be merged or are not to be merged and shall so notify the owner of its determination. A determination of nonmerger may be made whether or not the affected property meets the standards for merger specified in Section 9-3.1210 of the Thousand Oaks Municipal Code. A determination of merger shall be recorded within thirty (30) days after conclusion of the hearing.
(§ 1, Ord. 974-NS, eff. September 8, 1987)
If, within the thirty (30) day period specified in Section 9-3.1213, the owner does not file a request for a hearing in accordance with Section 9-3.1214 and Section 9-3.1215, the City may, at any time thereafter, make a determination that the affected parcels are to be merged or are not to be merged. A determination of merger shall be recorded as provided for in Section 9-3.1211 no later than ninety (90) days following the mailing of the notice required by Section 9-3.1214.
(§ 1, Ord. 974-NS, eff. September 8, 1987)
Subdivided lands may be merged and resubdivided without reverting to acreage by complying with all the applicable requirements for the subdivision of land as provided by this chapter. The filing of the final map or parcel map shall constitute the legal merging of the separate parcels into one parcel and the resubdivision of such parcel, and the real property shall thereafter be shown with the new lot or parcel boundaries on the assessment roll. Any unused fees or deposits previously made pursuant to this chapter pertaining to the property shall be credited pro rata towards any requirements for the same purposes which are applicable at the time of the resubdivision. Any streets or easements to be left in effect after the resubdivision shall be adequately delineated on the map. After the approval of the merger and the resubdivision, the map shall be delivered to the County Recorder. The filing of the map shall consist of the legal merger and the resubdivision of the land affected thereby and shall also consist of the abandonment of all street and easements not shown on the map.
