PPCL- it pays to be nice to your neighbors
PPCL requires copies of your remodeling or construction plans along with landscaping plans to be distributed to your surrounding neighbors for comment before a brief hearing for approval. The approval in necessary before the LA building permit is issued- in fact, it is prudent to get PPCL approval before getting engineering and building permits. We passed first time through. Hallelujah! We won't be cutting down any trees, but we will be losing green lawn in the front and gaining some landscape along the side and back. We are estimating at least a month for permits, then demolition and concrete.
