PROJECT INFORMATION:
Planning File Number: PLN160605
Owner: Leticia Maravillo Maldonado
APN: 261-111-015-000
Plan Area: Greater Salinas Area Plan
Flagged and Staked: No
SUMMARY AND DISCUSSION:
RMA considered a Parcel Map by the owner Ms. Leticia Maldonado, to divide a 26,500 square foot parcel located on Hyland Drive in Salinas. This qualifies as a minor subdivision resulting into two (2) parcels of 12,940 square feet (Lot 1), 13,560 square feet (Lot 2). On December 6, 2017, the Resource Management Agency (RMA) Chief of Planning, as the Appropriate Authority, approved the Parcel Map (Resolution No. 17-060) subject to conditions.
Pursuant to Monterey County Code Section 19.04.060 (Recording and acceptance of the parcel map), the Board of Supervisors is that Appropriate Authority to accept a Parcel Map for recording. The Board must accept that a Parcel Map has complied with conditions before the map can be approved for filing with the County Recorder. Accepting that a parcel map has complied with conditions is a ministerial action under CEQA.
In accordance with the County of Monterey Condition of Approval and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (adopted by the Monterey County Board of Supervisors pursuant to Resolution No. 17-060), all reviewing agencies have ensured that all pre-filing Conditions of Approval are fully implemented prior to the approval of the final map. Attached to this report are Department/Agency Condition of Approval & Mitigation Measures Compliance Certification Forms (CCFs) and supporting documentation which have been entered into the County’s electronic database: Accela Automation, also known as “Accela.” (See Attachment F.) The owner has recently submitted a Property Tax Clearance Certification in accordance with California Government Code Section 66492 and the Parcel Map Guarantee in accordance with Government Code Section 66465 of the Subdivision Map Act. RMA Planning staff has confirmed that all conditions of approval required for clearance prior to filing the Parcel Map with the County Recorder have been completed.
The Parcel Map is in substantial compliance with the approved Tentative Map which creates two (2) conforming, developable 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.
