PACIFIC PALISADES, Calif. — Emergency Executive Order 1 directed city departments to complete permitting review in 30 days or less for homes rebuilt as they were, waived CEQA and discretionary processes, and established the One-Stop Rebuilding Center.

It became the foundation for the twelve executive actions that followed. LADBS later reported completing plan check in about six days, roughly twice as fast as before the fires.

Who’s involved

  • Office of the Mayor of Los Angeles
  • Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety
