For additional permit records, you can use LA County's Permit Viewer portal to search for older permits that may not be on file with the City. To submit a records request with LA County, please visit the LA County Building & Safety Southwest Office located at 1320 W. Imperial Highway, Los Angeles, CA 90044.
