§ 17.34.050. Subdivisions of less than five lots—Remainder parcels.

A.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this title, improvement requirements for a division of land which is a subdivision of less than five lots shall be limited to the dedication of rights-of-way, easements, and the construction of reasonable off-site and on-site improvements for the parcels being created. Requirements for the construction of off-site and on-site improvements shall be noticed by a statement on the parcel map, on the instrument evidencing the waiver of the parcel map, or by a separate instrument, and shall be recorded on, concurrently with, or prior to the parcel map or instrument of waiver of a parcel map being filed for record.

B.

Fulfillment of the construction requirements shall not be required until the earlier of the following:

1.

Such time as a building permit or other grant of approval for development of the parcel is issued by the county;

2.

Such time as the construction of the improvements is required pursuant to an agreement between the subdivider and the county; or

3.

Within a reasonable time following approval of the parcel map and prior to the issuance of a permit or other grant of approval for the development of a parcel, if the advisory agency that approved the parcel map finds that fulfillment of the construction requirements within the time frame required by the advisory agency is necessary for reasons of:

a.

The public health and safety, or

b.

The required construction is a necessary prerequisite to the orderly development of the surrounding area.

C.

A remainder parcel included within a subdivision shall be subject to subsections A, B and D of this section.

D.

Whenever any required improvements are not to be completed prior to the filing of the parcel map, that fact shall be noticed by certificate on the parcel map or on the certificate of compliance issued in conjunction with the waiver of the parcel map. The parcel map certificate or the certificate of compliance shall explicitly state when the construction of such improvements shall be required. The construction of the improvements shall be required as a part of the issuance of any subsequent grant of approval for use, including but not limited to use permit, site plan review or building permit, or prior to any use of the property if no further approval is required.
