I am doing a subdivision. The 1st part of the process is submittal of application ie map info etc. I was given a completeness letter twice and over 30 apart knowingly by the planing department.

Question is :Can they do that within the laws under the streamlining map act? And or have they used up their time limits?

Re: application completeness

If you have to ask this question you should not be doing a subdivision map act division on your property. No your limitations and have a real attorney do the work so that it will be done completely, properly, and will not come back to bite you in the you know what would you try to deal with title companies in the future when you either sell the property, in raw parcels or build on them and then try to sell those houses. I commend you for getting through the map act thus far. Go see a real estate attorney immediately with your paperwork. Make sure that their well versed in subdivisions, and subdivision map act transactions.i have been practicing law in this speciality for over 30 years in the san francisco bay area and if you wish to consult with me you can contact me at 925-945-6000.
