Maintaining the high-quality
residential character of San Marino is the top priority
of the Planning and BuildingDepartment. The Department consists of the
Planning and Building Director, Senior Planner,
Planning & Building Assistant, Building Inspector,
Permit Technician, Code Compliance Officer and contract City Engineer. Together these
employees are responsible for current and long-range
community planning functions, building permit processing
and inspection services, engineering, code enforcement,
and zoning administration.
Current planning activities
include providing zoning information to the public and
reviewing development plans for compliance with City
zoning regulations. Long-range community planning guides
the future growth and physical development of the City
by updating the General Plan and its various elements.
The Department also provides staff support to the City
Council, Planning Commission and the Design Review
Committee. The Department also works with the business
community through the San Marino Chamber of Commerce.

Planning & Building Director
An important function of the
department, Code Enforcement, is primarily conducted
through the Code Compliance Officer. Other staff members
while conducting field work also identify and process
visible code violations in hopes of obtaining compliance
in a timely manner.
The combination of contract and
in-house staffing for building inspections and plan
check processing is especially beneficial during changes
in the economic cycle. The Department is able to reduce
or eliminate contract services without resorting to
layoffs of city staff. This Department is responsible
for administering and enforcing local and State
regulations applicable to construction on private
property within the City. Included in this
responsibility is the review of construction plans,
issuance of permits and field inspection of projects
from foundation through final completion of buildings.
The Department plays the major role in ensuring
conformance with City ordinances, State laws and
promoting property maintenance.
