Department of Planning & Building staff reviews the application for consistency with applicable land use regulations and the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

Staff schedules the application for a public hearing - either Planning Department Hearing, Subdivision Review Board, or Planning Commission based on the subdivision entitlement type.

During the public hearing, the hearing body considers the application and reaches a decision to either approve, conditionally approve, or deny the application.

Any aggrieved person can appeal a decision to the Board of Supervisors. Projects located within the Coastal Zone can be appealed to (or by) the California Coastal Commission.

The applicant must record the approved subdivision within two years of its approval date.

The applicant may for a time extension to extend the approval date for one year. The maximum number of available time extensions is based on the subdivision entitlement type.
