Notice: Limited Staff Availability During CALBO Education Week September 29 – October 3

Many of our permit technicians, plan checkers, and inspection staff will be attending CALBO Education Week from September 29 through October 3. During this time, staff availability will be limited, which may affect response times and service levels.

We appreciate your patience as our team participates in this important training to enhance their skills and better serve our community.

Starting July 14, 2025, we are launching a pilot program to make it easier to understand building permit application requirements.
As part of this program, Camino will be required for all residential projects, including new dwellings, additions, remodels, and non-habitable structures (such as garages). In under a minute, Camino generates a customized checklist of the permit application requirements specific to your project. Learn more and start using Camino here.

Discretionary Applicants: Please review and download the new PLG100 form before uploading your discretionary applications in the ePortal.

ePlan Improvement: We have added the ability to archive and unarchive projects. This is designed to be helpful for applicants that frequently use ePlan Review and have a project cancelled or paused.

Application Status Webpage Enhancements: Reviewer names and comment due dates are now displayed on the Application Status webpage. Once assigned, a reviewer’s name will appear; until then, the status will show as “Pending.”
