TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP APPLICATION

I.PURPOSE:
Both the State of California law and the Palm Desert Subdivision Ordinance requires that when any parcel of contiguous
parcels in one ownership is proposed to be divided into less than five parts now or in the future, a parcel map must be
processed through the City of Palm Desert.
II.SUBMITTAL REQUIREMENTS:
1.Complete the Tentative Parcel Map application, with all required signatures.
2.All required exhibits and plans, as specified below.
3.Application Fee: $1,203
III.PROCEDURE: The most expedited way to submit plans is electronically to http://cpdftp.org/filedrop/PermitCenter
or visit www.pdpermits.com for a direct link. If submitting paper plans, the following must be provided:
1.Schedule a time to discuss the preliminary project plans and zoning with the Planning Division staff and
other City departments for project requirements, including necessary application submittals. The applicant
should consult the General Plan for land use and street improvements.
2.Submit a complete application, with all required signatures, application fee, environmental assessment form (if
necessary), 300-foot radius map, mailing labels, and any other applications (for example, Architectural Review,
Conditional Use Permit, etc.).
3.Staff will review the application and determine if it is complete within 30 days from the date the project is
submitted. Staff will not process the application if it is deemed incomplete. After the application is deemed
complete, the project is circulated to other City departments and local agencies for comments and conditions.
4.Staff will present the project(s) to the Architectural Review Commission (held on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of
each month) after staff’s initial 30-day review period when comments have been received from other
departments and agencies. The Architectural Review Commission hearing may be delayed if the project is
deemed incomplete within the 30-day review period or if any changes are required because of conditions of
approval that affect the site plan, architecture, and/or if the project does not meet one (1) or more required
zoning development standards.
5.After the project receives preliminary approval from the Architectural Review Commission, staff will prepare a
staff report and schedule the project for Planning Commission (held on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of each month).
Staff publishes and mails a legal notice to adjacent property owners/tenants 10-21 days before the meeting,
and advertise the public hearing approximately six to eight (6-8) weeks after the project submittal. There is a
15-day appeal period from the day of a decision taken by the Planning Commission.
6.If the project involves a Change of Zone, General Plan Amendment, Development Agreement, exceptions, or
if the project is appealed or called up for review, City staff will schedule a public hearing with the City Council
(held on the 2nd and 4th Thursday of each month). Staff will prepare a staff report, and publish and mail a legal
notice to adjacent property owners/tenants 10-21 days before the meeting. This process is approximately two
to four (2-4) weeks after the Planning Commission decision and approximately eight (8) to 12 weeks after the
project has been submitted
7.Once the project has been approved and entitled, staff will mail the final conditions of approval to the
applicant/property owner.
8.Once final plans and conditions of approval have been prepared, final maps, grading, and improvement plans
may be processed through the Land Development Division and final working drawings submitted to the
Building and Safety Division for plan check.
