In order to clarify the discrepancy between the <br /> California Environmental Quality Act and the State <br /> Subdivision Map Act, it is necessary to clarify when <br /> a map is filed in the City of Pleasanton for purposes <br /> of computing the 50-day provision of the Subdivision <br /> Map Act. <br /> <br /> 3~ Owners of property in the City of Pleasanton are <br /> preparing or have prepared tentative subdivision maps <br /> which could be filed with the City of Pleasanton and <br /> in the absence of this clarification, the City could <br /> be placed in a position of having to obtaina requested <br /> waiver of the 50-day provision which the subdivider <br /> may or may not grant. If the subdivider does not <br /> grant said extension of time, then the City has no <br /> option but to recommend denial'of themap on environmen~ <br /> tal grounds. This process can lead and has led to <br /> litigation in the past and is expensive to both the <br /> citizens of the City of Pleasanton and the subdivi- <br /> ders. This ordinance is necessary at this time to <br /> prevent such conflicts. <br /> <br /> 4~ The normal waiting period for implementation of <br /> an ordinance is 30 days after its adoption. During <br /> this period of time, tentative maps could be filed <br /> with the City which would cause the difficulties <br /> enunciated before. Thus, it is imperative that this <br /> ordinance be adopted now to clarify when, in fact, <br /> the tentative map is filed with the City. <br /> <br />Section 8. This ordinance shall be published once within fifteen <br /> (15) days after its adoption in "THE TIMES," a newspaper: <br /> of general circulation, published in the City of <br /> Pleasanton. <br /> <br /> -3- <br /> <br /> <br />
