Los Angeles New Development Requirements

[David Avetisyan]

Looking to begin a new development on an 8 unit complex in the city of Los Angeles. I am seeking out experienced builders to educate me on what is needed to get plans approved and start construction.

The following is what I am under impression is a must on blue prints:

 1. Structural Engineering
  2. Mechanical, Electrical & Plumbing        

• 3.Title 24 energy
  4. Civil / grading engineering
  5. Geology/Soils Report/engineering
  6. Property Survey, topographic or boundary survey
  7. Landscape / irrigation plans
• 8. Grading Plans
• 9. LID
• 10. Sprinkler System
• 11. Utility upgrade (is this necessary even if there is an existing building?)

What am I missing and/or what will I not need?l

I’m trying to connect with engineers and bids are all over the place with what is, and is not included so I'm trying to figure things out.

Thanks in advance!
