9.94.010 Tentative parcel or tentative tract maps.
Prior to final tract or final parcel map approval, minor amendments to the approved tentative parcel or tentative tract map, including vesting tentative maps, or conditions of approval may be approved by the director upon filing of an application and paying applicable fees, as established by council resolution, by the subdivider or on the department’s own initiative; provided, that:
A. No lots, units, or building sites or structures are added;
B. The changes are consistent with the intent and spirit of the original tentative map approval; and
C. There are no resulting violations of the Bell Gardens general plan, this title, any applicable specific plan, the subdivision regulations, or the Subdivision Map Act.
The amendment shall be indicated on the approved tentative parcel or tentative tract map and certified by the director. Amendments to the tentative parcel or tentative tract map, or conditions of approval which, in the opinion of the director, are not minor, shall be presented to the original decision-making body for consideration. Processing of amendments shall be the same as originally processed for the applicable subdivision type. Any approved amendment shall not alter the expiration date of the tentative parcel or tract map. (Ord. 806 § 1, 2007).
9.94.020 Final maps.
A. After a final tract or parcel map is filed in the office of the county recorder, it may be amended by a certificate of correction or an amending map for the purposes specified in Section 66469 of the Subdivision Map Act.
B. In addition to the provisions of BGMC 9.94.010, Tentative parcel or tentative tract maps, a final tract or parcel map may be amended by a certificate of correction if there are changes which make any of the conditions of the map no longer appropriate or necessary and the modifications do not impose any additional burden on the present fee owner of the property, and if the modifications do not alter any right, title or interest in the real property reflected on the recorded map, and the map as modified conforms to the provisions of Section 66474 of the Subdivision Map Act.
The amending map or certificate of correction shall be prepared by a registered civil engineer or licensed land surveyor. The form and contents of the amending map shall conform to the requirements of BGMC 9.78.040, 9.80.020 and 9.82.030. The certificate of correction shall set forth in detail the corrections made and show the names of the present fee owners of the property affected by the correction.
C. Modifications made pursuant to this section shall be set for public hearing before the council consistent with the noticing provisions of BGMC 9.76.080, Public hearings. The hearing by the council shall be confined to consideration of, and action on, the proposed modification.
D. The amending map or certificate of correction certified by the city engineer shall be filed in the office of the county recorder. Upon such filing, the county recorder shall index the names of the fee owners and the appropriate subdivision designation shown on the amending map or certificate of correction in the general index and map index, respectively. Thereafter, the original map shall be deemed to have been conclusively so corrected, and thereafter shall impart constructive notice of all such corrections in the same manner as though set forth upon the original map. (Ord. 806 § 1, 2007).
