Permits / Authority
Redondo Beach permits
Redondo Beach is its own city. Its Community Development department handles planning and building, and its Planning Division publishes an ADU page.
Official starting points
Confirm the parcel's city
Confirm the address is inside Redondo Beach city limits; a mailing name alone does not decide the reviewing agency.
Coastal questions
Ask whether coastal review applies to your parcel before design.
Who reviews what, and where to start
Planning review (land use, overlays, design) and building review (drawings, permits, inspections) can be separate offices. The current checklist lives on each office's official page; the links below are the starting point, not the checklist itself.
- Department starting point
- Official resource: Redondo Beach · Community Development
We have not registered a separate building-permit page for this authority; start at the department page and ask there for the current checklist.
Before you contact the agency
Have the address, parcel number, past permits and a short scope description ready. The printable list on this page summarizes what to bring. Go to the list
What stays parcel-specific
- Zoning and overlays that touch your address

- Fees calculated on the submitted project
- How many correction rounds follow
What is specific to this authority
