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.
