RESOLUTION NO. 4153
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AZUSA,
LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, TO THE BOARD OF SUPER-
VISORS OF LOS ANGELES COUNTY URGING THE ENACTMENT OF A
COUNTY LOT SPLIT ORDINANCE.
WHEREAS, the City of Azusa has had in effect since January
17, 1949, a lot split ordinance which has enabled the City to
effectively regulate the creation of new lots which are not
subject to or controlled by the Subdivision Map Act of the State
of California; and
WHEREAS, the lot split ordinance has been extremely beneficial
in enabling the City to obtain proper street dedications, adequate
street improvements, and the overall coordination of new lots with
the surrounding area; and
WHEREAS, Los Angeles County presently does not have any
ordinance controlling the division of land in the County in
respect to dividing land into two, three, or four parbels; and
WHEREAS, the lack of a proper ordinance regulating the
division of County land into new lots not subject to the Sub-
division Map Act of the State of California has continuously
allowed the creation of new lots on a wide -spread scale by pro-
perty owners in the Canty without regard to an orderly coordination
of said new lots with surrounding City and -County areas; and
WHEREAS, the end result of the lack of such an ordinance
has been a continuous creatJm of new unimproved and uncoordinated
parcels which have caused in the past and continue to cause
avoidably hazardous and undesirable traffic conditions, increas-
ing flood hazard conditions, the prevention of efficient water
system utilization, a deterrent to proper community development,
and depreciation of property values within the City and in County
territory,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Council of the City
of Azusa, as follows:
SECTION 1. That the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors
