In accordance with Long Beach Municipal Code (LBMC) Chapter 20.16, State of California Government Code, Section 66458, and applicable local subdivision ordinances and subsequent rulings, a final subdivision map conforming to State Subdivision Map Act requirements is required to be approved by the City Council.
