SUMMARY:
On August 26, 2020, the Monterey County Planning Commission approved a Vesting Tentative Map for a Minor Subdivision (Resolution No. 20-029; Attachment B) for the division of a 155.4-acre lot, resulting in two (2) parcels containing 109.1 acres (Parcel 1) and 46.3 acres (Parcel 2). The Minor Subdivision creates two parcels for Agricultural Industrial use at the Tanimura & Antle facility in Spreckels. The subdivision was approved with five conditions of approval that required actions prior to or concurrent with acceptance and filing of the Parcel Map with the County Recorder. All pre-filing Conditions of Approval contained in adopted Resolution No. 24-040 have been cleared. The Applicant/Owner has submitted a Property Tax Clearance Certification (Attachment E) in accordance with California Government Code Section 66492 and a Parcel Map Guarantee (Attachment D) in accordance with Government Code Section 66465 of the Subdivision Map Act.
The Parcel Map (Attachment C) is in substantial compliance with the approved Tentative Map which creates two conforming parcels. All applicable fees associated with the recordation of the Parcel Map have been satisfied, collected, and deposited. There are no subdivision improvements associated with this Parcel Map. Therefore, staff recommends that the Board approve the subject Parcel Map for filing with the County Recorder, subject to the submittal of the applicable recording fees by the property owner.
