The new Resilient City Rebuilding Permit Center is ready to answer any questions and help guide homeowners, contractors, and designers with submitting plans and obtaining the necessary permits to begin construction. This Permit Center is exclusively for those affected by the fires and has been set up to ensure an expedited process is in place to help our community members rebuild. If your project is ready for permit submittal, our team is ready to work with you to review design drawings and projects to issue a permit for construction.

Resilient City – Rebuilding Permit Center

The Resilient City Permit Center is now open in Room 6 at City Hall (100 Santa Rosa Avenue) from 8am – 5pm, Monday thru Friday, and is staffed with individuals who will answer questions and conduct plan review and permit processing specifically related to fire damage. This will have no impact on the existing permit center and all permits for unrelated projects will continue going through Room 3. For more information about building permits and the rebuilding process, please visit srcity.org/rebuilding You may also contact the Rebuilding Permit Center by phone at 707-543-4649.

Architects are much more than mere designers.

They are — through education and professional training — problem-solvers, perceptive listeners, and creative thinkers who can devise strategies and find solutions to complex problems. They are policy makers and advisors. And they are here to help.

Architects in your local community stand ready to assist in many ways. From emergency response, safety inspection and immediate resources, to envisioning ways rebuild in a way that prevents future problems. Architects are the only professionals educated, trained and tested to design homes, buildings, and facilities that are safe, resilient and sustainable. They are thinking about the big questions - how can we rebuild disaster areas to prevent future calamities?  What role do building codes and design standards play in disaster preparedness and recovery? As well as the small ones – what steps do I need to take to work with my insurer? How do find the people I need to rebuild my home.

Architectshelp.org was created as a resource for those both dealing with the devastating effects of a disaster as well as a vehicle to help those not impacted consider preparedness options.
