(a) An approved or conditionally approved tentative subdivision or parcel map shall expire twenty-four (24) months from the date it was approved or conditionally approved. Unless a final map is filed with the Planning, Public Works and Environmental Services Department prior to expiration of the corresponding tentative map, all proceedings shall terminate upon such expiration, and any subdivision of the land shall require the filing and processing of a new tentative map. Said application shall be identified as a previously approved, but now expired map. A final map or parcel map may be filed for record after the expiration date of the tentative map if an application for said final or parcel map was filed with the Department prior to the expiration date.
(b) At any time prior to the expiration of an approved or conditionally approved tentative map, the subdivider may submit to the Planning, Public Works and Environmental Services Department an application for an extension of the twenty- four (24) month initial time period, pursuant to Section 66452.6I of the Subdivision Map Act, for the tentative map and, if the application is timely, the Advisory Agency that approved or conditionally approved the subdivision may grant the extension. There shall be no other extensions of the time period for the tentative map except as required by Section 66452.6 or Section 66463.5 of the Subdivision Map Act.
(c) Any tentative subdivision map or vesting subdivision map is eligible for an extension of time, provided final approval for such extension occurs prior to the expiration of the original map. The hearing procedures for an extension of time shall be the same as for resubmittal of the map.
(d) Upon filing of a timely application for an extension of time, the map shall automatically be extended for sixty (60) days or until the application for the extension is approved, conditionally approved, or denied, whichever occurs first. An extension of time may not be granted for more than a total of five (5) years, but may be granted for a lesser time at the sole discretion of the final hearing body. These extensions are exclusive of those tentative maps approvals that are, or will be, automatically extended by the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act (Government Code Section 66452.21, 66452.22, 66452.23, 66452.24, 66452.25, or any subsequent similar legislation), or by the provisions of any other similar section that may from time to time be added to the Act.
(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter or of the Yolo County Code, any entitlement, development permit or other approval which would expire pursuant to this chapter or the Yolo County Code, but which was approved concurrently with and pertains to any approved tentative subdivision or parcel map the expiration date of which was automatically extended by the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act (Government Code Sections 66452.21, 66452.22, and 66452.23), or by the provisions of any other similar section that may from time to time be added to the Act, shall be extended for the same period as that provided by said section for the approved tentative subdivision or parcel map to which it pertains.
(f) Approval of a minor or major modification of a previously approved or conditionally approved tentative map shall not affect the expiration date of a tentative map.
(g) A subdivider may apply for a resubmission of the map rather than an extension of time; in which case, the map may be approved after the expiration date of the original map.
