§ 30.55.130. Additional Development Standards for Subdivisions.


Latest version.
  • A.

    No subdivision shall be approved unless the Planning Commission makes a finding that the proposed design of the subdivision and its improvements will be consistent with the criteria of this Chapter. Specifically, no subdivision shall be approved for creation of a lot(s) which would be incapable of either: 1) supporting the construction of a use allowed within the underlying zone and of supporting such use without the installation or construction of a shoreline protective device; 2) supporting such construction with provision of the applicable Coastal Bluff Top setbacks and other resource protection measures required pursuant to this Chapter; or 3) supporting such use without the installation or construction of a bluff or shoreline protective device. As a condition of recording the subdivision, a deed restriction shall be placed on all proposed bluff top parcels, which waives all rights to future protective devices for new development. In reviewing the subdivision proposal, the Planning Commission shall take into consideration, the probable impacts that the project, including subsequent development on the lot(s), will have on preservation of coastal bluffs and the avoidance of hazards.
