Subject: Adoption of a Resolution Approving Final Parcel Map for 1514 Princeton
Street
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution approving Final
Parcel Map No. 74057 for the property located at 1514 Princeton Street.
Summary
This report transmits for City Council approval a final parcel map for a two-unit
condominium project located at 1514 Princeton Street. A final parcel map is required by
the Subdivision Map Act and must show that the conditions of the vesting tentative
parcel map have been satisfied in order to convert the vesting tentative parcel map from
a conceptual approval by the Planning Commission into a legal subdivision of land
recorded with the Los Angeles County Recorder. A final parcel map is required to be
approved prior to the issuance of a building permit. On July 13, 2015, the Planning
Commission approved the vesting tentative parcel map. A timely filing of the Final
Parcel Map was made to the City prior to the tentative map’s expiration date. According
to Section 66452.6(d) of the Subdivision Map Act, once a timely filing is made to the
County or City, subsequent actions of the local agency, including, but not limited to,
processing, approving, and recording of a map, may lawfully occur after the map’s
expiration date.

Discussion
A vesting tentative parcel map application (16ENT-0044) was submitted to the City
Planning Division on March 8, 2016, to create two (2) residential condominium air space
parcels on one land lot in the R2 Low Density Residential zoning district. After a public
hearing and careful review of the record and staff recommendations, the Planning
Commission approved a Vesting Tentative Parcel Map for the above project on July 13,
2016. The action of the Planning Commission was based on its findings that the
proposed subdivision will have no significant environmental impact and is in
conformance with all state and local laws and regulations, and applicable General Plan
Elements. The final parcel map conforms to the . As a vesting tentative parcel map
application, its associated approval confers a vested right to proceed with development
in substantial compliance with the ordinances, policies, and standards in effect at the
time the vesting map is deemed complete by the City (March 31, 2016).
The developer will be required to show proof of payment of the condominium tax of
$2,000 prior to issuance of building permit. The Final Map has been approved by the
Los Angeles County Engineer’s office and certified by the City Engineer for
conformance with the Tentative Map and conditions thereon, the Subdivision Map Act
and local ordinances. The City Engineer’s office indicates that there are no required off-
site public improvements. The City Attorney's office has approved the Covenants,
Conditions and Restrictions for the Final Map as complying with the conditions of the
Tentative Map and applicable laws.
Financial Impacts and Budget Actions
There is no immediate financial impact or budget action necessary as a result of the
recommended action.
