Building permits for projects within the city limits of Bakersfield are reviewed by the Bakersfield building department. Your Title 24 energy report is submitted as part of that permit package.
How submission works in Bakersfield
Title 24 itself is a statewide California code, but the permit is issued locally. For projects inside Bakersfield’s city limits, plans and the energy report are submitted to the Bakersfield building/permit division. Projects in unincorporated areas near Bakersfield are typically handled by Kern County.
We prepare your CF1R or LMCC using CEC-approved software and complete CHEERS registration, then deliver a permit-ready PDF formatted for submission to your local jurisdiction. For current submission steps, hours, and addresses, check the Bakersfield official city website — local processes change from time to time.
