11-3-5: APPROVAL; DISAPPROVAL:
   A.   Commission Action:
      1.   Time Limitation: The planning commission shall recommend approval, disapproval or conditionally approve the said tentative map within forty five (45) days after the filing or refiling of the said map. This time limit may be extended by written mutual consent of the city and owner/applicant. Failure of the planning commission to act on this tentative map within said time limit shall be deemed approval of the map.
      2.   Written Report: In the event of disapproval or conditional approval of the tentative map, a report, in writing, shall be made to the subdivider and to the city council. This report shall state the conditions under which the map will be approved.
   B.   Council Action: The city council shall approve, conditionally approve or disapprove a tentative map filed within thirty (30) days after receipt of the planning commission's recommendation.
   C.   Approval: Approval of the tentative map shall not constitute acceptance of the final map. Approval of the tentative map shall lapse unless a final map based thereon is submitted within one year from the date of such approval, unless a provision for an extension of time has been granted. The city council may grant to the subdivider a single extension of not more than one year within which to record a final map after receiving approval of the tentative map.
   D.   Tentative Approval: If a plan is granted tentative approval, with or without conditions, the city shall set forth the time within which an application for final approval of the plan must be filed or, in the case of a plan which provides for development over a period of years, the periods within which application for final approval of each part thereof must be filed.
