When is an Erosion Prevention and Sediment Control (EPSC) Permit Needed?
Permits are required for all construction sites that disturb 2,000 square feet or more of land surface. Land disturbance includes any activity that exposes soil, including but not limited to grading, excavating, filling, vegetation removal, or logging.
A street cut permit authorizes a registered, bonded contractor to excavate in a public street or alley to access a public utility line. The review and issuance of these permits allows City staff to assess the need for the street cut, ensure that the contractor can perform the work in a manner consistent with City standards, impose traffic control standards if necessary, specify backfilling requirements, and outline City specifications for the patching process.
A permit is required when a manufactured dwelling is proposed to be placed or replaced in a manufactured dwelling park, manufactured dwelling subdivision, or in a residential zone. A permit may also be required for altering, repairing or converting a manufactured dwelling, installing earthquake resistant bracing or constructing a manufactured dwelling accessory structure.
