§ 8205-9. Expiration of development rights of vesting tentative map.

If a final map or parcel map for which a vesting tentative map has been approved is timely filed and recorded, the development rights conferred with respect to the subdivision by operation of Chapter 4.5 (commencing with Section 66498.1) of the Subdivision Map Act shall last for an initial period of 12 months beyond the date on which the final or parcel map is recorded. The initial period shall be extended by any time used by the County for processing a complete application for a grading permit or for design or architectural review if the time used by the County to process the application exceeds 30 days from the date the complete application is filed. At any time during the initial period the subdivider may submit to the Planning Division, on a form approved by the Planning Director, an application for a 12-month extension and, if the application is timely, the Planning Division shall grant the extension as a matter of right.
