San Francisco, CA property project guides
San Francisco’s permit resources distinguish existing building uses, including apartments, condos, offices, retail, hotels and warehouses. Record the present use and the proposed change clearly in your brief. A mixed-use property also needs an explicit boundary between shared systems, individual units and commercial tenant equipment.
Start with the building.
- Describe the existing use of each space and any intended change before requesting a scope.
- Identify the owner, association or tenant responsible for each affected system.
- Put building access, equipment delivery and occupant coordination into the same proposal request.
- Ask the project professional how the existing use affects the application and review needed for this work.
A precise scope helps a provider assess the job and gives you proposals that are easier to compare. Include the records you already have and mark anything the provider needs to investigate on site.
