Los Angeles — BOE / street use vs LADBS

LADBS is the building AHJ. Excavation and A-permits in the public way typically run through the Bureau of Engineering / street-use path, not the building ticket.

  • LADBS (building)
  • LA BOE / street use
  • LADOT if traffic control
  • Bureau of Street Lighting for some pole work
