Subdivision & Tentative Parcel Map Requirements
Municipal code citations, submittal checklists, and fees for the county and its largest city.
Calaveras County
Tentative parcel maps: Calaveras County Code of Ordinances, Title 16 (Subdivisions), Chapter 16.05 (Parcel Maps), Section 16.05.060 "Contents of Tentative Parcel Map" (procedural/submittal requirements in surrounding sections of the same chapter, e.g. 16.05.070 Review of Tentative Parcel Maps)
Chapter 16.05 is the parcel map chapter; a related Chapter 16.07 covers Merged Parcels and Vested Tentative Maps. Municode's own rendered page returned HTTP 403 to automated fetch, so section titles were confirmed via Municode's search-result snippets and node-ID naming (16.05.060COTEPAMA = 'Contents of Tentative Parcel Map') rather than a full text render — verify wording directly in a browser before quoting language verbatim.
Single-sourced for the combined TPM total on the Planning Dept fee page. The County Surveyor's parcel-map-checking fee ($1,310.00) is a separate line item confirmed on a second, independent page (https://publicworks.calaverasgov.us/Surveyor) — that figure is double-sourced, but it is a subset/different fee than the Planning Dept's all-in TPM total, not a corroboration of the same number.
Corroborated by a second source: the Clerk-Recorder's official 'Fee Schedule Effective January 1, 2022' PDF (https://clerkrecorder.calaverasgov.us/Portals/ClerkRecorder/Documents/Recorder/2022%20Fee%20Schedule.pdf), which lists the identical $8.00/$2.00 map-filing fee under G.C. §27372.
City of Angels Camp
Tentative parcel maps: Angels Camp Municipal Code, Title 16 (Subdivisions), Chapter 16.16 (Parcel Maps), Section 16.16.030 'Tentative map required when' (cross-references Chapter 16.12 'Tentative Maps' for general tentative-map procedure); Chapter 16.20 covers 'Final Maps--Parcel Map Approval'
Confirmed live via codepublishing.com (current through Ordinance 541, passed August 20, 2024). No standalone tentative parcel map submittal checklist PDF was found on the city's Planning or Community Development pages.
Verified by downloading the current FY2025-26 Planning Fee Schedule PDF and extracting text with pdftotext. An older FY2023-24 fee schedule PDF (https://angelscamp.gov/wp-content/uploads/Fee-Schedule-23-24-1.pdf) shows different, lower TPM figures ($2,881/$8,644), confirming these fees are updated annually — treat the 25-26 figures as current and the 23-24 PDF only as a prior-year reference, not a same-year corroboration.
Angels Camp has no separate recorder's office; the City's Public Works Fee Schedule (FY2025-26, https://angelscamp.gov/wp-content/uploads/Public-Works-Fee-Schedule-25-26.pdf) was checked directly and contains no map-recording line item, consistent with recording being a county function.
