99.01.102.2. Information on Construction Documents. (Amended by Ord. No. 185,587, Eff. 7/16/18.) Construction documents shall be of sufficient clarity to indicate the location, nature and scope of the proposed green building feature and show that it will conform to the provisions of this Code, the LAMC and other relevant laws, ordinances, rules and regulations as determined by the Department. The construction document and other data submitted to the Department for checking shall be drawn with ink or indelible pencil, or shall be made by a reproducible process approved by the Department.
99.01.102.4. Official Stamp. When construction documents and other data fully comply with the provisions of this code, the Department shall place an official stamp of approval on all applicable sheets of each set.
99.01.102.5. Validity of Approval. The stamping or approval of any construction document or other data shall not be held to permit, or to be an approval of, the violation of any provision of this code.
99.01.102.6. Alterations to Stamped Construction Documents. No stamped or approved set of construction documents or data shall be altered in any manner, except when and as approved by the Department.
99.01.102.7. Stamped Plans on Job. The stamped set of construction documents and other data shall be kept at the site of the construction work and shall be available to the authorized representative of the Department. There shall be no deviation from the stamped or approved application, construction document, or other data without the Department’s approval.
99.01.102.8. Validity of Permit. The issuance of a permit is not an approval or an authorization of the work specified therein. A permit is merely an application for inspection, the issuance of which entitles the permittee to inspection of the work which is described therein.
Permits issued under the requirements of this code shall not relieve the owner of responsibility for securing required permits for work to be done which is regulated by any other code, department or division of the City of Los Angeles.
All permits are issued subject to the following conditions:
If the work described by a valid permit is prohibited by a change in the Los Angeles Municipal Code, then such work may be completed only if the Department determined that both substantial liabilities have been incurred, and substantial work has been performed on site, in accordance with the terms of that permit. Work performed and liabilities incurred pursuant to a demolition or relocation permit shall not be considered in determining whether an owner may complete a building or structure for which a building permit has been issued.
99.01.102.9. Validity of Other Laws. Neither the issuance of a permit nor the approval by the Department of any document shall constitute an approval of any violation of any provision of this code or of any other law or ordinance, and a permit or other document purporting to give authority to violate any law shall not be valid with respect thereto.
99.01.102.10. Making False Statements to the Department. Any person who willfully or knowingly, with the intent to deceive, makes a false statement or representation, or knowingly fails to disclose a material fact in any documentation required by the Department, including any oral or written evidence presented, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor.
