GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
Before approval for code compliance or issuance of a building permit, the plans and specification for this construction require the information, revisions and corrections indicated below. The approval of plans and specifications does not permit the violation of any section of the building code, or other ordinance or state law.
This plan check will expire 180 days from the original submittal date unless a written request for extension is submitted and approved prior to expiration. The request must include justifiable cause. The Building Official may approve a one-time extension of up to an additional 180 days. No extensions will be granted beyond 360 days from the original submittal date.
Effective January 1, 2026, the City of Santa Ana will enforce the 2025 California Building Standards Codes for all new plan submittals. Plans submitted prior to this date shall be governed by the 2022 codes; however, any plan check that expires after January 1, 2026, will be required to comply with the 2025 codes.
When submitting corrections, clearly indicate where each change has been made. Reference the applicable sheet number, detail number, or relevant note for every correction to facilitate accurate and efficient review.
This review does not include Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP).
Additional plan check fee will be required after the third review on hourly basis.
Obtain any applicable approval from the following agencies prior to permit issuance:
Planning Division – The plans approved by the Building Division must include the Planning approval stamp. Building staff will notify the Planning Division for approval. For approval status, contact the Planning Division at (714) 647-5804 or visit the Planning Division counters.
Public Works Agency (PWA) – Obtain PWA clearance if any of the following applies: project valuation exceeds $30,000, project has added plumbing fixtures, added bedrooms, or project exceeds 500 square foot in new construction (not renovation). After the Building Division approves your project, visit the Building Division counters and request a copy of the approved plan. Bring the approved plan to the PWA counters for approval. After PWA approves your project, return the approved plan to the Building Division counters.
Police Department (PD) – The plans approved by the Building Division must include the PD approval stamp. After the Building Division approves your project, Building staff will notify PD for approval. For approval status, contact the PD at (714) 647-5840 or email PolicePlanCheck@santa-ana.org.
Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) - Submit plans to OCFA immediately if you answer “Yes” to any part of questions 1 through 10 on the plan submittal criteria. Bring an OCFA approved plan to the Building Division counters for permit issuance. Contact OCFA for approval status.
County of Orange, Health Care Agency, Environmental Health (OC Health) – Submit plans to OC Health if the business involves food service. Contact OC Health for submittal requirements. If OC Health approval is required, bring an OC Health approved plan to the Building Division counters for permit issuance.

PLAN REVIEW COMMENTSSheet A0-0 (Title Sheet)
Provide a 9" x 9" blank space near the bottom-right corner of the title sheet, outside the title block, for the City approval stamps.
This building plan check does not include the Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) review. Update the sheet index to either reflect the removal of MEP sheets or reference 'Per Separate MEP Permits.'
Add the following note under the Deferred Submittal section: “Fire sprinkler drawings shall be submitted to and approved by the Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) prior to the final of the building permit.”Under Project data, the type of construction is listed as V-B. However, City records indicate that the previous building permit specified Type I construction. Based on the 2022 California Building Code, it is unclear whether the current building meets the requirements for Type I-A or Type I-B construction. Verify the fire-resistance ratings of the building elements in accordance with CBC Table 601 and confirm the correct type of construction for this building.
Verify whether the proposed scope of work includes a change of occupancy. If a change of occupancy is proposed, clearly identify on the plans the occupancy classification(s), showing the existing occupancy and the proposed occupancy. If no change of occupancy is proposed, add a note on the plans stating: "No change of occupancy is proposed."
The project data notes state: “B occupancy ambulatory care facility – This facility is not required to undergo OSHPD review, nor will this project be subject to state licensing. Applicable Code: Section 1226.” This statement is internally inconsistent. CBC Section 1226 governs licensed outpatient clinic facilities and OSHPD/HCAI-regulated healthcare occupancies. If the facility is not licensed and not subject to OSHPD/HCAI oversight, then CBC 1226 is not the governing code section for this project. Provide written clarification confirming whether this tenant improvement is being designed in accordance with CBC Section 1226. If not, revise the note to reference the correct CBC provisions applicable to a non-licensed Group B outpatient tenant.Sheet A0.1 (Site Plan)Identify any conditions along the path of travel that do not comply with accessibility standards, and provide construction details showing how they will be corrected.
Show full compliance for the exterior accessible route by addressing the following per the CBC:
Floor surfaces (11B-302.1)
Slopes (11B-403.3)
Walkway width (11B-403.5.1)
Vertical clearance (11B-307.4)
Protruding objects (11B-307.2)
Changes in level (11B-303)Sheet A1.0 (Floor Plan)Indicate the occupancy group of adjacent tenants (both next to and above). Specify the required fire-resistance rating for the occupancy separation walls in accordance with CBC Table 508.4.
Identify any rooms classified as incidental uses per Table 509.1. If none exist, include a statement: “No rooms classified as incidental uses per Table 509.1.”
Confirm that Unit 105 is new and that adjacent units have not been altered, merged, or deactivated. Provide before-and-after first-floor plans clearly showing all unit numbers.Sheet SD1A single structural detail is shown. However, the location of this detail is unclear. Cross reference the location of this detail from the floor plan.Redmarks
There are no additional red marks on the plans. All comments in this written report address the plan review issues. You may pick up the original plans if desired, but it is not required.End of Comments
