Description
WORKSHOP - Subdivision Maps
Summary
The document explains Fresno’s subdivision-map requirements under the Fresno Municipal Code, General Plan, community plans, and California’s Subdivision Map Act. It distinguishes parcel maps for four or fewer parcels from tentative/final maps for larger subdivisions and explains vesting maps, density calculations, lot dimensions, remainder parcels, and required street, emergency, pedestrian, trail, park, and open-space features. It also identifies landscaped setbacks and connectivity standards that vary by area. Tentative maps generally expire after two years, with possible extensions, while minor and major revisions have different approval standards and limits on added lots. Maps must be denied if inconsistent with adopted plans, unsuitable for the site or density, harmful to health, safety, wildlife, or public access.
