Building permits for projects within the city limits of Garden Grove are reviewed by the Garden Grove building department. Your Title 24 energy report is submitted as part of that permit package.
How submission works in Garden Grove
Title 24 itself is a statewide California code, but the permit is issued locally. For projects inside Garden Grove’s city limits, plans and the energy report are submitted to the Garden Grove building/permit division. Projects in unincorporated areas near Garden Grove are typically handled by Orange 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 Garden Grove official city website — local processes change from time to time.
