It established a start date for your seismic retrofitting and can only be scheduled once your issues the permit number for the retrofitting of buildings. Furthermore, you seismic retrofit ordinance Los Angeles work will not be ready to issue (RTI) until the building department has verified the Housing authority’s “blessing” of your project.
