As a condition of approval of a tentative subdivision map, the subdivider shall reserve sites, appropriate in area and location, for parks, recreational facilities, fire stations, libraries or other public uses according to the standards and formula contained in this chapter.

22.50.010 Standards and formula for reservation of land.
If a park, recreational facility, fire station, library, or other public use is shown on an adopted specific plan or the General Plan containing a community facilities element, recreation and parks element, or a public building or facilities element, the subdivider may be required to reserve sites in accordance with the definite principles and standards contained in such specific plan or General Plan. The reserved area shall be of such size and shape as to permit the balance of the property within which the reservation is located to develop in an orderly and efficient manner. The amount of land to be reserved shall not make development of the remaining land held by the subdivider economically unfeasible. The reserved area shall conform to the adopted specific plan or General Plan and shall be of such multiples of streets and parcels as to permit an efficient division of the reserved area in the event that it is not acquired within the prescribed period. [Ord. 7-2009 §3, eff. 5-1-2009; Ord. 2000-14A §1, eff. 10-25-2000; Ord. 2000-1 §1, eff. 7-1-2000]

The public agency for whose benefit an area has been reserved shall at the time of approval of the final subdivision map or final parcel map enter into a binding agreement to acquire such reserved area within two (2) years after the completion and acceptance of all improvements, unless such period of time is extended by mutual agreement between the public agency and the subdivider. [Ord. 7-2009 §3, eff. 5-1-2009; Ord. 2000-14A §1, eff. 10-25-2000; Ord. 2000-1 §1, eff. 7-1-2000]

The purchase price of the reserved area shall be the market value thereof at the time of the filing of the tentative subdivision map or tentative parcel map plus the taxes against such reserved area from the date of the reservation and any other costs incurred by the subdivider in the maintenance of such reserved area, including interest costs incurred on any loan covering such reserved area.
