NEW: FEMA SUSPENDS REVIEW OF CLOMR-F AND LOMR-F APPLICATIONS Effective July 1, 2023, FEMA will temporarily suspend processing applications for Letters of Map Revision based on Fill (LOMR-Fs) and Conditional Letters of map Revision based on Fill (CLOMR-Fs) in the City of Alameda. Click here more information.
DELAY ALERT : Due to a high permit volume, the Permit Center is temporarily 3 weeks out in processing. Thank you for your patience.
FRAUD ALERT : Beware of scammers who pretend to be calling you from the City. They may say they are inspectors or work at the permit center -- and that if you don’t give them your credit card number, something bad will happen. But this is a scam. The City does not ask for credit card information over the phone. If you aren’t sure, always hang up and call us directly at 510-747-6800. Thank you!
