Sec. 8-1.405.   Vesting on approval of vesting tentative maps.
   (a)   The approval or conditional approval of a vesting tentative map shall confer a vested right to proceed with development in substantial compliance with the ordinances, policies, and standards described in Section 66474.2 of the Subdivision Map Act. However, if said Section 66474.2 is repealed, the approval or conditional approval of a vesting tentative map shall confer a vested right to proceed with development in substantial compliance with the ordinances, policies, and standards in effect at the time the vesting tentative map is approved or conditionally approved.
   (b)   This article does not enlarge, diminish, or alter the power of the Board of Supervisors to deny approval of the requested project or any part thereof, or to impose conditions on the approval of a project. Nothing in this chapter removes, diminishes, or affects the obligation of any subdivider or local agency to comply with the conditions and requirements of any State or Federal laws, regulations, or policies.
   (c)   Notwithstanding subsection (a) of this section, a permit, approval, extension, or entitlement may be made conditional or denied if any of the following is determined:
   (1)   A failure to do so would place the residents of the subdivision or the immediate community, or both, in a condition dangerous to their health or safety, or both; or
   (2)   The condition or denial is required in order to comply with State or Federal laws.
   (d)   The rights conferred by this section shall be for the time periods set forth in Section 8-1.406, below.
