Approved Standard Plans

Image of Downtown Los Angeles

Under the Standard Plan Program, plans are designed by private licensed architects, and engineers to accommodate various site conditions. Plans are then reviewed and pre-approved by LADBS for compliance with the Building, Residential, and Green Codes. When the applicant selects an approved Standard Plan, LADBS staff will review site-specific factors for the specific site, including compliance with the Zoning Code and foundation requirements.

The following pre-approved ADU Standard Plan is owned by the City of Los Angeles and may be used by property owners free of charge. Please note that this pre-approved Standard Plan may not be approved for use in certain situations and/or site conditions.
