Commercial Naming Convention Guides
The County of San Luis Obispo Planning and Building is accepting On-Line Building Permit Applications. Applying for a permit electronically does not guarantee expedited processing.
- When applying for a permit electronically we require a specific naming convention to facilitate the submittal and plan review process.
- Once you have been given a building permit number, if the prefix to the number starts with any of the following prefixes listed below, the naming conventions will need to be followed.
- Building permit will be broken down into different Permit Case Types (Prefixes) and work classes. The following are the different Prefixes and Permit Case Types available in the County’s Permitting System for commercial projects. Please select the prefix below that is for your commercial building permit to see the required naming conventions:
* Please note if there is an “ASB” after the permit case type, the permit is an “As-Built” and the naming conventions are the same as the original Permit Case Type.
4. When the initial review has been completed by all applicable departments, you will be contacted that corrections are ready for their review. The notification will also include conditions (hold items),outstanding fees, and school fee forms, if applicable.
5. After corrections have been completed by the Applicant, in the resubmittal, the documents need to be uploaded, with Permit prefix, permit number, naming convention and the revision number at the end,
- V2, V3, etc.
- Example naming convention: Plans-CBLD2022-00000-V2
6. Once the Plans Examiner and all the reviewers approve the plans, the Land Use Tech will notify the Applicant of any outstanding conditions that will need to be met and remaining fees to be paid prior to issuing the permit.
7. The Land Use Tech will email Construction Permit forms for applicant to sign and return. Once Construction Permit forms are returned the plans will be available for applicant to print and have available on the job site.
PLEASE NOTE:
• Please submit a complete set of plans and supporting documents at initial submittal with the proper naming conventions. At resubmittal a complete set of plans with supporting documents with the proper naming conventions will also be required. Trickling in of documents is not accepted and can result with an additional round of corrections.
• Initial deposit does not constitute total building permit fees. Permit fees will be calculated by a Land Use Tech. Initial deposit will be applied against permit fees, and the balance of permit fees will be given at time of correction notification. For a fee estimate, please contact the Building Department at 805-781-5600.
• Please submit all the plans and documents at initial submittal and resubmittal.
