PERMITTING & PLAN REVIEW SUBMITTALS

Permits - When are they required?

According to the California Building Standards Code, no building or structure may be erected, constructed, enlarged, altered, repaired, moved, improved, removed, converted or demolished unless a separate permit for each building or structure has first been obtained from the building official.  Code requirements vary in different cities, counties, around the state.  Local districts or jurisdictional may have more restrictive requirements than the state.  Building permits are needed in all new construction projects and most renovation projects in the state of California.  The Fire Department must review permit plans to ensure they comply with local requirements and state codes.

Deferred Plans - All projects must submit plan reviews as a complete package.  Fire Sprinklers and Fire Alarm plan reviews deferrals are not accepted. They must be submitted as a complete package with applications submitted respectively by the type of project.  All applications can be submitted through our Tyler Technology permitting program at:  https://www.tylertech.com/products/fire-prevention-mobile.

Inspections - A minimum of 5 business days is required to request an inspection and made through the Tyler Technology permitting program.  If the permit was issued before 2023 - please email prevention@mlfd.ca.gov to get entered into the new permitting system.

MATERIALS LISTINGS

The Office of the State Fire Marshal's (SFM) Building Materials Listing Program (BML) was originally created to mandate that all fire alarm systems and fire alarm devices be approved and listed by the State Fire Marshal prior to sale or marketing within the state. The program later was expanded to include many other materials such as: roof coverings, fire resistive wall and ceiling-floor assemblies, wall finish materials, fire and non-fire related hardware, insulating products, fire doors, fire dampers, electrical appliances and devices. Each product approval and listing is based upon an evaluation of test results that include an analysis of required product performance and reliability features. All companies that want to list products in California must have those products tested by a SFM accredited laboratory.

The SFM listing service provides building authorities, architectural and engineering communities, contractors, and the fire service with a reliable and readily available source of information.
