-Subdivision-
Newly incorporated city was not required to approve a final subdivision map where the vesting tentative subdivision map had been submitted by the developer to the county after the city’s incorporation had begun and was approved by county after city’s incorporation had been approved by electorate. City did not bind itself to approve final subdivision map by adopting county ordinances approving vesting tentative subdivision map in manner that replaced references to the county and its board of supervisors with references to the city and its city council. City was not estopped from withholding approval of final subdivision map where city worked extensively with developer to clear the county-imposed conditions from the vesting tentative map at considerable expense to developer--estoppel may not be based on expenditures made before a building permit or its functional equivalent has issued--and where there was no evidence in the record that any official, employee, or agent of the city made any express representation that the city would approve the map, and undisputed evidence shows that city officials publicly voiced their concerns about the project both before and after the incorporation became effective.
