Planning your Villa Park project

Requirements depend on the property, jurisdiction and scope. We begin with a site visit, then coordinate the relevant agency review and required submittals as the project develops.

Building permits
The City of Villa Park issues building permits for pools, spas, walls and outdoor structures.
Large landscapes
Estate-size landscapes often cross California's water-efficient landscape thresholds: 500 square feet of new landscape, or 2,500 square feet of rehabilitated landscape, when a permit or plan check is required. We design irrigation and planting to comply.
Fire and slopes
Villa Park is served by the Orange County Fire Authority. Hillside lots near open space may be in a mapped fire hazard zone, which affects planting and materials.
Water provider
Villa Park is served by Serrano Water District.
Pool safety (statewide)
When a building permit is issued for a new pool or spa, or to remodel one, at a single-family home, California generally requires at least two qualifying drowning-prevention features. Some two-feature combinations are prohibited, and local rules can add requirements. A qualifying locking safety cover provides a statutory exception for a hot tub or spa. We confirm the applicable combination and any exception with the permitting authority. Source ↗
Pool heating energy rules (statewide)
Since January 1, 2026, new pool heating installations must generally use a qualifying primary heat source, such as a heat pump or solar, under California’s 2025 Title 24 energy standards. Read our pool energy code FAQs.
Water-efficient landscapes (statewide)
New landscapes of 500 square feet or more, or rehabilitated landscapes of 2,500 square feet or more, that need a building permit, plan check or design review must meet California’s Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (MWELO) or the local version of it. Source ↗
