Permitting or zoning issue resolved

How this closesHand in your document — Submitting it closes this step. We keep a copy for your record — we never file or submit anything for you.

Why this matters

Zoning decides what can legally happen at an address.

Signing a lease for a space not zoned for your use is one of the most expensive mistakes a small business makes, and it is usually discovered after the money is spent. The point of this step is to move that discovery earlier.

Before you start

Have the property address, the Assessor Parcel Number if you have it, and a clear description of your intended use.

Timelines for a conditional use permit or variance run to months. Not yet confirmed by LAEDC.
