Board of Building Permit Appeals

Printer Friendly View

March 6 Meeting Cancelled requires Agenda Archives Board of Building Permit Appeals The Board of Building Permit Appeals (BBPA) has been established for two purposes: 1. To resolve disputes between the County Building Inspection Section and building permit applicants or permit holders regarding proper interpretation of County construction codes; and, 2. To authorize the Chief Building Official to record notices of violation against properties with unresolved violations of County construction codes. When any building or other construction permit has been denied, revoked, or suspended and you feel the action was based on an improper interpretation of the construction codes, you may consider an appeal to the BBPA. Likewise, violations the Building Official wishes to record must first be brought before the BBPA, after proper notice to the owner. The Board of Building Permit Appeals meets regularly on the first Tuesday of the month in the Room 101, County Office Building, 455 County Center, Redwood City, at 7:00 p.m. The meeting is open to the public. Note: Because meetings are sometimes canceled due to lack of business, it is a good idea to check with the County Building Inspection Section before attending a meeting for which you have not received an official notice. Call the Building Inspection Section at (650) 599-7311.
