Resident says parcel map TPM19001 advanced without signatures; asks council to direct city attorney to release AutoCAD and survey files
Summary
Liz Santos told the council she believes parcel map TPM19001 advanced through administrative processes without required signatures, alleged repeated denials for AutoCAD and ALTA survey records from the city attorney’s office, and asked the council to order a records review and an investigation into extensions granted without elected‑official review.
At the March 24 meeting Liz Santos addressed the council about parcel map TPM19001 and what she described as an ‘‘administrative bypass’’ that allowed the map and subsequent extensions to move forward without required signatures or elected‑official review.
Santos said she has repeatedly requested AutoCAD DWG files, ALTA boundary surveys and related public records through the city’s public records portal and directly to city attorneys but has not received the documents. She told council, "The administrative processes is not a license to ignore the law," and asked elected officials to direct the city attorney to release the requested files and investigate why approvals and extensions occurred without council or planning commission review.
The council did not take an immediate recorded action on her request during the meeting; Santos asked for a formal direction to the city attorney and for staff to produce the requested records.
Provenance: Santos’ full statement and request to the city attorney and council appear in the oral communications segment of the March 24 meeting.
