(a) If the Director of Planning and the County Engineer determine that the final map is in substantial conformity with the approved tentative map and the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act and this chapter, s/he shall so certify on the final map and, within twenty (20) days of submission or resubmission, shall file such map, together with any other materials pertinent thereto, with the Clerk of the Board for presentation to the Board. If the Director of Planning and the County Engineer determine that substantial conformity to the provisions of this chapter and the Subdivision Map Act or the approved tentative map has not been made, s/he shall, within twenty (20) days from the date of submission of the final map for approval, advise the subdivider of the changes or additions which shall be made for such purposes and shall afford the subdivider an opportunity to make such changes or additions.
(b) At the next subsequent meeting of the Board, or within a period of ten (10) days after filing the final map with the Clerk of the Board, the Board shall approve such map if it conforms to all the requirements of the Subdivision Map Act and this chapter. At the time of approval of the final map, the Board shall accept or reject any or all offers of dedication.
(c) As a condition precedent to the acceptance of any streets or easements, the subdivider shall be required to improve such streets or easements or, as an alternative, execute an agreement therefor and comply with the provisions of this chapter in relation thereto and execute any bonds required by the provisions of this chapter.
(d) Upon compliance with the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act and this chapter, the map of the subdivision shall be approved, accepted, and filed for recording. If, at the time of approval of the final map, any streets are rejected, the offer of dedication shall be deemed to remain open and shall not be subject to revocation, and the Board may, by resolution at a later date and without further action by the subdivider, rescind its action and accept and open such streets for public use, which acceptance shall be recorded in the office of the County Clerk-Recorder. If a resubdivision map or a map showing reversion to acreage of a tract is subsequently filed for approval, any offers of dedication previously rejected shall be deemed to be terminated upon the approval of the later map by the Board.
(e) Prior to the final map being filed for record by the County Clerk-Recorder, a map filing certificate, issued to or for the benefit of the County Clerk-Recorder, shall be furnished by a title company operating under the laws of the State, certifying that, as shown by the public records, the parties consenting to the recordation of the map are all of the parties having a record interest in the land subdivided whose signatures are required by the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act.
