Sacramento County Code Land Development Ordinance Amendment (Title 22)

The project consists of amendments to Sacramento County Code (SCC), Title 22, specifically Chapters 22.05-22.30, 22.40-22.45, 22.60, and 22.100-22.400, to incorporate recent changes in California state law, as well as changes to facilitate land division and development with Sacramento County. The proposed County Code Amendments are as follows: 1. Amendments to Sacramento County Code, Title 22 to: a. Identify the Subdivision Review committee as the hearing body for tentative subdivision maps, excluding "vesting" maps that are consistent with existing zoning, applicable Specific Plan, and/or General plan land use designation. b. Identify the Planning Commission as the hearing body for vesting tentative maps that are consistent with applicable zoning, Specific Plan, and/or General Plan designation. c. Identify the Director of the Department of Community Development (or designee) as the hearing authority for all map extensions of time. 2. Land Division Projects pursuant to SB 684 and SB 1123 The proposed revisions will amend a portion of the SCC so that the provisions of Title 22 are inapplicable to projects consistent with the guidelines of Sections 65852.28, 65913.4.5, and 66499.41 of the Government Code. 3. Administrative Amendments Update and clarify outdated language in Title 22, such as references to Public Works Department; and clarification of "board" and "director"). Update references to the Planning Director to County Engineer or County Surveyor where applicable. Correct minor grammatical errors and consistency in terminology. Update County processes, applications, and guides, including but not limited to the Zoning Code User Guide.
