Permits are required to build, alter, repair, move or demolish any building and to do electrical, plumbing, heating, solar, and air conditioning work. Earthwork grading and driveway approaches also require permits. Permits may be obtained at your local Building and Safety office. Be sure you have all the necessary permits before you start work.
