      20.770.020 Exclusions.

      B. An adjustment of the boundary line between abutting parcels or the transfer of land between two owners of abutting parcels may be disapproved if it does not contain adequate access, utility, water conveyance and drainage easements to serve the resulting parcels.   (Ord. 763, 1996)    

      20.770.030 Standards for approval.
      A. The adjustment of the boundary line between abutting parcels or the transfer of land between two owners of abutting parcels shall be approved without conditions or further administrative proceedings when:
            1. It does not result in the creation or reduction in size of non-conforming lots;

If the proposed configuration results in the creation of parcels subject to new residential, commercial or industrial development, the director or his designee may require, prior to approval and recordation of the map, that public facilities and improvements be constructed, in the manner and at the same level as if parcel map approval had been sought.   (Ord. 763, 1996)
