Court decisions citing this, by year. The dip in the last several years is a data-coverage gap, not a real trend — our corpus holds fewer opinions from the most recent years, so recent citations are undercounted.

The Real Estate Commissioner shall make an examination of any subdivision, and shall, unless there are grounds for denial, issue to the subdivider a public report authorizing the sale or lease in this state of the lots or parcels within the subdivision. The report shall contain the data obtained in accordance with Section 11010 and which the commissioner determines are necessary to implement the purposes of this article. The commissioner may publish the report.

(e) Inability to demonstrate that adequate financial arrangements have been made for any community, recreational or other facilities included in the offering.
