In accordance with the Manteca Municipal Code (MMC) Title 16, Section 16.13.060, a subdivider may request approval from the City Council to start improvement work related to a subdivision prior to the approval and recordation of the Final Map.
Kiper Homes, developer of Dutra Property Subdivision, has submitted a written request to begin work on the subdivision prior to recordation of the future Final Maps. All conditions of MMC Title 16 Section 16.13.060 (B)(1) through (B)(5), copied below, will be met prior to the start of work.
Title 16, §16.13.060 Grading and Improvements prior to Final Map.

1. The subdivider has made written application to the public works department and has obtained approval from the city council for such work;
2. The tentative subdivision map has been approved or conditionally approved;
3. Any rezoning to make the lots conform to the city zoning ordinance has been approved;
4. All improvement plans and grading plans have been approved and appropriately signed pursuant to this chapter; and
