On July 15, 2009, Governor Schwarzenegger signed AB 333 (Fuentes), which extends for two years the life of tentative and vesting tentative maps that would otherwise expire before January 1, 2012. As an urgency statute, the bill takes effect immediately. Procuring the Governor's signature by July 15, 2009, was critical because the 12-month extension provided by SB 1185 (Lowenthal) expired on that date, and AB 333 does not apply to tentative maps that expire before the bill takes effect. Similar to SB 1185, the 24-month extension provided by AB 333 is in addition to any other applicable statutory extensions.
