§ 21.06.075. Time period for rights conferred by vesting tentative parcel or tract map.

(a)

The rights conferred by a vesting tentative parcel map or a vesting tentative tract map shall last for an initial time period of two years beyond the recording of the parcel map or tract map. Where several tract maps are recorded on various phases of a project covered by a single vesting tentative tract map, the two-year initial time period shall begin for each phase when the tract map for that phase is recorded.

(b)

The initial two-year time period shall be automatically extended by any time used by the planning department for processing a complete application for a grading permit or for design or architectural review, if the time used by the planning department to process the application exceeds thirty days from the date that a complete application is filed. At any time prior to the expiration of the initial two-year time period, the divider may apply to the planning director for a one-year time extension. The decision of the planning director shall be final unless appealed to the board of supervisors within fifteen days after the date of the decision.

(c)

If the divider submits a complete application for a building permit during the periods of time specified in subsection (b), the rights conferred by Government Code Sections 66498.1 through 66498.9 shall continue until the expiration of that permit, or any extension of that permit granted by the planning department.
