In 1972, the state enacted a provision such that a subdivision of land thereafter would require a map. Some jurisdictions around the state adopted similar provisions prior to 1972. San Francisco is one such jurisdiction. I am under the impression that the cut off date is Dec. 1946 in S.F. I have searched high and low for chapter and verse for the 1946 S.F. provision. I have reached out to the local agency without any luck. I am looking for the ordinance, resolution,subdivision guideline that contains the language.

thanks for your help

  • 30. If a man stealthily cultivates the field of another man and he raises a complaint, this is however to be rejected, and this man will lose his expenses. (
  • 31. If a man flooded the field of a man with water, he shall measure out three kur of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barley&apos ;">barley per iku of field.

That is some serious digging through dusty old books of statutes. You are to be commended for your diligence.
