2. Plan Check Submittal Instructions
4. Disclaimer

   It is advisable to consult with the Planning Department to ensure that your project meets certain design standards required by the Laguna Hills Municipal Code prior to submitting for plan check to avoid paying non refundable plan check fees for a project that cannot be permitted. The Planning Department staff can be contacted by phone at (949) 707-2600 or in person at City Hall during counter hours between 1:00 - 5:00 pm, Monday though Thursday.

6. Plan Checks submitted here are reviewed by both the Planning & Building Departments. If your project requires review/permits by other departments (Engineering, Grading, etc.) or agencies (OC Fire Authority, OC Health Dept., Water District, etc.) it is the responsibility of the applicant to submit required plans to those departments and provide the Permit Technician with those approvals prior to permit issuance.
8. Questions?

33. Plan Check Payment
    Before the Permit Technician can route your initial submittal of plans to the two departments for review the City will need to receive payment for the plan check fees. You will receive a confirmation email within 1-3 business days indicating that your submittal has been accepted and entered into our permitting system. This email will include an attachment of the invoice for the plan check fees and instructions for paying the invoice. Your plan check fee will cover 3 rounds of plan check. If your plan check requires more than 3 rounds to approve each subsequent round will be charged for the time it takes to perform the plan check.

35. Initial plan check review takes approximately 10 business days, from time of complete application including required plan check fees.  Subsequent reviews typically take approximately 5 business days.
