1. If an environmental impact report (EIR) is required, the EIR shall be adopted within one year of the project application being accepted as complete, subject to such limited extension as permitted by the Subdivision Map Act.
2. If a negative declaration is required, the negative declaration shall be adopted within one hundred five days of the project application being accepted as complete, subject to such limited extension as permitted by the Subdivision Map Act.
3. The director or planning commission shall hold a public hearing on the project within fifty days of the adoption of the environmental document.
Note: Subsections (A)(1) and (3) or (A)(2) and (3) of this section may be accomplished concurrently.
B. Any of the time limits for acting on tentative maps specified in these regulations may be extended by mutual consent of the subdivider and the advisory agency or legislative body required to report or act, pursuant to Subdivision Map Act Section 66451.1. To do so, the subdivider must expressly waive, in writing or in the record at a public hearing, his or her right to have the map considered without those time limits. (Ord. 1729 § 4 (Exh. A), 2023)
