California Building Codes, review correct application and interpretation of existing codes, and ensure uniform enforcement of all
codes.

is an important component in the execution and completion of all construction projects, including redevelopment projects. The
Building Division will strive to facilitate the construction process from ground breaking through the issuance of a Certificate of
Occupancy in an expeditious manner.
