Building history
San Bruno incorporated in 1914 during the Peninsula's early suburban-growth wave.
Source ↗Planning your work
In San Mateo County's incorporated cities the building department for the city that covers the address is the permitting authority, not the county. The Contractors State License Board's consumer page on building permits states the California Building Standards Code position that work may not be erected, altered, repaired or demolished without a permit first obtained from the building official, notes that code requirements vary between cities and counties, and asks readers to check with their local building department. Confirm the scope with that department before work is arranged.
