for which a tentative map has been approved; or (2) The first of a series of final maps covering a portion of the approved tentative

map. If the subdivider elects to present a successive map in a series of final maps,

each covering a portion of the approved tentative map, the subdivider shall present

to the governing body, or the planning commission or the director of planning or other

authorized person or agency if authorized to take final action by the governing body,

concerning the subdivision are terminated. (c) The governing body or planning commission may grant an extension of not more than

2 years for the presentation of any final map after the 2-year period for presenting

a successive final map has expired. 2. If the subdivider is presenting in a timely manner a series of final maps, each

covering a portion of the approved tentative map, no requirements other than those

imposed on each of the final maps in the series may be placed on the map when an extension

of time is granted unless the requirement is directly attributable to a change in
