County Permits, Open Space and a Lake in the Middle

Westlake Village contracts with the County of Los Angeles for its building and safety services, with the County office in Calabasas and most business handled online through the County's permit system. That is the first thing to establish on any job here, because a contractor expecting a city counter is preparing for the wrong process.

The town lies in the northwestern Santa Monica Mountains, nine miles inland from the Pacific, and much of it is surrounded by open space including hiking and horse trails and the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area. Open space adjacent lots bring slope, runoff and access considerations that flat parcels do not.

With the lake at the center, the community straddles the line between Los Angeles and Ventura counties, and roughly two thirds of it lies in the Ventura County city of Thousand Oaks rather than in Westlake Village. Confirming which jurisdiction a parcel falls in comes before any paperwork.

Of 3,438 housing units, about 81 percent of occupied ones are owner occupied. These are private decks, terraces and garden stairs rather than shared walkways, and the owner usually noticed the problem and will live with the repair.

A deck that gets little sun stays wet longer after a storm, and time under water is what kills a coating and the plywood under it. Where a deck is shaded or north facing, we pay extra attention to fall, to drainage outlets and to the terminations at walls and thresholds.

Waterproofing in Westlake Village: Your Questions

Where does my Westlake Village permit come from?

Los Angeles County. The city contracts building and safety services to the County, whose office is in Calabasas, and most business is handled through the County's online permit system rather than a city counter.

My property is near the county line. Does that matter?

It does. The community straddles the Los Angeles and Ventura county line, with roughly two thirds of it in the Ventura County city of Thousand Oaks. We confirm jurisdiction on the parcel before anything is filed.

My deck never seems to dry out. Is that the coating's fault?

More often it is the fall and the shade together. A surface that holds water and gets little sun stays wet for days, and time under water is what breaks down a coating and softens the plywood beneath.
