Full summary

The Bureau of Engineering is asking the City Council to approve the final parcel map for 14517 West Hesby Street, a property in Council District 4 located west of Van Nuys Boulevard. The map would subdivide a single existing lot into two separate lots. The property owners are Yung Cheng and Xueping Cheng. The Deputy Advisory Agency conditionally approved the preliminary map on April 29, 2025. All conditions of approval have since been satisfied, and no public street improvements were required as part of the subdivision. The project has been deemed statutorily exempt from CEQA review as a ministerial action. The subdivider paid a processing fee of $9,064; no additional city funds are needed. Under California Government Code Section 66458, the Council is required to approve or disapprove the final map at its next regular meeting after receiving it, provided the map conforms to all conditions of the tentative map. If the Council neither approves nor disapproves within the prescribed timeframe and the map meets all requirements, it is automatically deemed approved. Upon Council approval, the final map will be transmitted to the County Engineer for recording with the County Recorder. The file was referred to Council on May 21, 2026, the day after submission. No committee assignment or Council vote has yet been recorded. The tentative map approval expires April 29, 2028, giving the overall subdivision process a firm deadline.
