Permits:

WHEN DO I NEED TO GET A DUMPSTER PERMIT in LOS ANGELES?

Section 62.105 of the Los Angeles Municipal Code (LAMC) requires permits to be obtained for construction in any property, street or other right of way owned by, to be owned by, or under the control of the City. Such improvements may include, but are not limited to sidewalks, curbs, gutters, pavement, grading, sewers, storm drains, bridges, retaining walls, trees and tree wells, culverts, traffic signals, and street lights.

WHEN DO I NEED AN "A" PERMIT?

An "A" Permit (LAMC 62.106.a) is issued only for the repair, construction or reconstruction of curbs, sidewalks, driveway approaches or gutters, and work appurtenant to the foregoing, or work within a public easement, where the work contemplated is limited in extent and can be constructed to match existing grades without a survey or engineered plans. "A" Permits are often issued in conjunction with sewer permits which require excavation in a public street. Driveways and sidewalks involving the relocation of water meter and gas valve boxes, street light and traffic signal conduit and pull boxes and parking meters, require coordination with the appropriate agencies.

To obtain a construction "A" permit, please contact your local District Office.

WHEN DO I NEED A "B" PERMIT?

A "B" Permit (LAMC 62.106.b) is issued for extensive public works improvements including the widening of streets and alleys, the changing of existing street grade, construction of bridges, retaining walls, and the installation of sewer, storm drains, street lighting, and traffic signals. Construction plans are usually required which must be signed by a California licensed Civil and/or Electrical and/or Traffic Engineer.

A "B" Permit may be issued for either design or construction, or a single permit can be issued for both design and construction. These permits cover plan check engineering, installation of traffic control devices, inspection, testing during construction, and maintenance of street trees.

"B" Permits are most frequently issued for public works improvements adjacent to land being developed. In these instances, the extent and type of improvements depend on conditions imposed by the Council, City Engineer, Department of City Planning, or some other jurisdictional body in accordance with the Municipal Code, City Charter, State Law, or City Ordinance.

To obtain a development "B" permit, please contact your local District Office.
