Tentative map review fee: Actual-cost basis (deposit system) — last-published planning packet showed a $1,800 initial deposit for a Parcel Map application source · verified 2026-07

Inyo County Code §3.60.020(A)/(D) (Planning Department Service Fee and Cost Schedule, ecode360.com/44460827, confirmed via proxy fetch) establishes that a 'map filed under the Subdivision Map Act' is NOT a flat fee — the applicant pays the county's actual cost of processing (staff hourly rate + 20% overhead), collected as an up-front deposit. The $1,800 figure is the deposit amount shown in the county's own 2018/2019-dated fillable application packet (still the live linked document on inyocounty.us as of 2026-07); the current 2023-revised fillable packet (Sept2023 version, also fetched) omits the dollar table entirely and just references 'see attached' fee schedule, so the $1,800 figure could not be re-confirmed as still current from a second live source. Treat as indicative, not guaranteed-current — flagged in gaps.

Recording fee: $14.00 first page + $3.00 each additional page (recording maps), per Inyo County Clerk-Recorder fee schedule; standard document recording is the same $14/$3 structure source · verified 2026-07

PDF fee schedule linked from https://www.inyocounty.us/services/clerk-recorder/fees-clerk-recorder-documents ; downloaded directly and text-extracted with pdftotext. Item 10 'Recording maps: First page ... $14.00, Each additional page ... $3.00' (citing Gov. Code §27361, §27371) sits alongside the county's general 'Regular Recording Fee' entry (item 1, same $14/$3 structure, citing GC 27361/27361.4/27390/27397(c)(1)), so the map-specific line item is internally corroborated by the county's own general recording-fee line in the same document — but both are from the single fee-schedule PDF, so this is not a second independent source. No separate survey-monument-preservation fee line was found in this schedule.

Tentative map review fee: $2,000 flat (Tentative Parcel Map Review, fee code PL-12); Final Parcel Map Review is a separate $500 fee (PL-14) source · verified 2026-07

Resolution No. 2023-07 is a scanned (image-only) PDF with no text layer; fee figures were extracted via OCR (tesseract) after converting pages to images, and the PL-12/PL-13/PL-14 fee lines were legible and internally consistent with the surrounding planning fee table (Zone Change, CUP, etc.), which serves as internal corroboration within the same document. This is the newest fee resolution linked live from the city's Finance page — no 2024/2025/2026 resolution PDF is currently linked there, though a city council agenda referenced a 'Fiscal Year 2025-2026' and upcoming 'Fiscal Year 2026-2027' fee update; those PDFs were not locatable via search, so this figure could not be corroborated against a newer source. The resolution also states fees escalate annually every July 1 by the Engineering News-Record Construction Cost Index (Los Angeles), so the actual current amount is likely higher than $2,000 — flagged in gaps.

Recording fee: $14.00 first page + $3.00 each additional page (same as county — Bishop has no separate city recorder) source · verified 2026-07

The City of Bishop does not maintain its own recording office; final/parcel maps for property within Bishop are recorded with the Inyo County Clerk-Recorder at 168 N. Edwards St., Independence, per the same fee schedule used countywide.
