Whether the standard subdivision or the minor subdivision procedure shall be used in subdividing property shall be determined as provided in this section.

A.    Case I. All proposed lots abut an existing state highway, county road or city street, and the only new roads which may be required are stubs for future development.

1.    Four or less lots in any time period, the minor subdivision (parcel map) procedure may be used.

2.    Five or more lots, the standard subdivision procedure shall be used.

B.    Case II. All proposed lots abut existing city streets, county roads, or will abut proposed new city streets within the subdivision.

1.    Four or less lots in any time period, either the minor subdivision procedure (parcel map) or standard subdivision procedure may be used.

2.    Four or Less Lots. Where the owner or subdivider wishes to dedicate and improve a city street from which to sell building sites from time to time at later dates, either the minor subdivision procedure (parcel map) or the standard subdivision procedure may be used.

3.    Five or More Lots. The standard subdivision procedure shall be used on all subdivisions where any lot is less than five acres in area.

4.    Five or More Lots. Where all border on a fully-improved public street, and where no street stubs or improvements are required, and where the original parcel does not exceed five acres, either the minor subdivision procedure (parcel map) or standard subdivision procedure may be used.

5.    Five or more building sites in any industrial development, the minor subdivision (parcel map) procedure may be used unless otherwise stipulated by the planning commission.

6.    Any division of land into parcels of twenty acres or more where each parcel abuts on an improved public street, the minor subdivision procedure (parcel map) or standard subdivision procedure may be used. (Ord. 35 § 1 (part), 1972: prior code § 10-107.010)
