OAKDALE IRRIGATION DISTRICT SUBDIVISION PARCEL MAP POLICY In accordance with the Subdivision Map Act (California Government Code Section 66410 et seq.), a Parcel Map is distinguished from a Subdivision Map by the number of parcels created and its designation when submitted by the appropriate lead agency for review. A Parcel Map can create up to 4 new parcels plus a remainder. A Parcel Map can create more than 4 parcels, and a remainder, if the parcels are 40 acres or greater in size or has a zoning designation of Commercial or Industrial. A Subdivision Map creates 5 or more parcels. Pursuant to California Law, a parcel map is required when: 1. The land before division contains less than five (5) acres, each parcel created by the division abuts upon a maintained public street or highway and no dedication or improvements are required, or 2. Each parcel created by the division has a gross area of twenty (20) acres or more and has an approved access to a maintained public street or highway, or 3. The land consists of a parcel or parcels of land having approved access to a public street or highway which comprises part of a tract of land zoned for industrial or commercial development, and which has been approved as to street alignments and widths, or 4. Each parcel created by the division has a gross area of not less than forty (40) acres or is not less than a quarter of a quarter-section. The following are the requirements, recommendations and considerations from the Oakdale Irrigation District (District) regarding development of subdivisions and parcel maps within the District's water service area in accord with and pursuant to the Subdivision Map Act. REQUIREMENTS -GENERAL 1. The District requires written, recorded easements for all of its facilities within the development area with the recorded instrument number noted on Parcel and Final (Subdivision) Maps. The District requires that its irrigation and drainage easements be clearly identified on recorded Parcel and Final (Subdivision) Maps. Any proposed easements due to relocation requests shall also be identified. 2. The District requires that existing irrigation pipelines, canals, ditches, structures, turnouts and drains on the created parcels (both District and Private) be shown on the Parcel and Tentative Subdivision Maps for review purposes. 3. The District requires full, unencumbered access, as determined solely by the District, to both sides of its facilities and will rehabilitate, at its cost, those facilities within its control that do not meet that standard. This work shall be performed by the District after receipt of recorded easements and prior to signing the Final Map. 4. Relocation of District facilities to the benefit of the development must be coordinated and approved by the District. The District will not allow District Facilities to be installed within roadways. The District shall be contacted for current Policy and preferred alternatives. All costs associated with design, approval and analysis of relocations, including reasonable attorney and consultant fees, shall be at the Developer's expense.
