Summary
We are a General Law City that operates under the General Law of the
State of California
We DO NOT have a Lot Line Adjustment Ordinance,only a procedure
handout referencing the Subdivision maps act 66412(d).
We DO have a Lot Merger Ordinance and procedure which references
Subdivision maps act 66451.11
No evidence has been provided by the Town Attorney that supports
his claim that Involuntary Lot Merger per 66451.11 is not enforceable,
evidence to the counter says it IS enforceable!
Evidence supporting that a non-buildable parcel can not be made
buildable through lot line adjustment has also been submitted to the
Town (see Burke Lot Line Adjustment)
The Town is blatantly breaking our Town’s Laws if it approves this LLA
application
The DRC and Town of Los Gatos SHALL follow merger procedures in
accordance with our Town Ordinance and SMA 66451.11
The Project is not exempt from CEQA due to average slopes >20%
and reasonably foreseeable impact that would be caused by the
project
