Disclosures & Forms for Owner -Builders Applying for Construction Permits
IMPORTANT! NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER
Dear Property Owner:
An application for a building permit has been submitted in your name listing yourself as the builder of the property
improvements specified at
We are providing you with an Owner -Builder Acknowledgment and Information Verification Form to make you aware of your
responsibilities and possible risk you may incur by having this permit issued in your name as the
Owner -Builder. We will not issue a building permit until you have read, initialed your understanding of each provision,
signed, and returned this form to us at our official address indicated. An agent of the owner cannot execute this notice
unless you, the property owner, obtain the prior approval of the permitting authority.
OWNER'S ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND VERIFICATION OF INFORMATION
DIRECTIONS: Read and initial each statement below to signify you understand or verify this information.
I understand a frequent practice of unlicensed persons is to have the property owner obtain an "Owner -Builder"
building permit that erroneously implies that the property owner is providing his or her own labor and material personally. I, as
an Owner -Builder, may, be held liable and subject to serious financial risk for any injuries sustained by an unlicensed person
and his or her employees while working on my property. My homeowner's insurance may not provide coverage for those
injuries. I am willfully acting as an Owner -Builder and am aware of the limits of my insurance coverage for injuries to workers
on my property.
14? -1 understand building permits are not required to be signed by property owners unless they are responsible for the
construction and are not hiring a licensed Contractor to assume this responsibility.
LV i understand as an "Owner -Builder" I am the responsible party of record on the permit. I understand that I may protect
myself from potential financial risk by hiring a licensed Contractor and having the permit filed in his or'her name instead of my
own.
understand Contractors are required by law to be licensed and bonded in California and to list their license numbers on
permits and contracts.
' I understand if I employ or otherwise. engageany persons, other than California licensed Contractors, and the total value
of my construction is at least five hundred dollars ($500), including labor and materials, I may be considered an "employer"
under state and federal law.
I/V6'7I understand if I am considered an "employer" under state and federal law, I must register with the state and federal
government, withhold payroll taxes, provide workers' compensation disability insurance, and contribute to unemployment
compensation for each "employee." I also understand my failure to abide by these laws may subject me to serious financial
risk.
ly 7. I understand under California Contractors' State License Law, an Owner -Builder who builds single-family residential
structures cannot legally build them with the intent to offer them for sale, unless all work is performed by licensed
subcontractors and the number of structures does not exceed four within any calendar year, or all of the work is performed
under contract with a licensed general building Contractor.
4—T understand as an Owner -Builder if I sell the property for which this permit is issued, I may be held liable for any
financial or personal injuries sustained by any subsequent owner(s) that result from any latent construction defects in the
workmanship or materials.
24—f understand I may obtain more information regarding my obligations as an "employer" from the Internal Revenue
Service, the United States Small Business Administration, the California Department of Benefit Payments, and the California
Division of Industrial Accidents. I also understand I may contact the California Contractors' State License Board (CSLB) at 1-
800-3_21�-CSLB (2752) or www.csib.ca.gov for more information about licensed contractors.
-Wl U. t am aware of and consent to an Owner -Builder building permit applied for in my name, and understand that I am the
party legally and financially responsible for proposed construction activity at the following address:
'A"Tl. I agree that, as the party legally and financially responsible for this proposed construction activity, I will abide by all
applicable laws and requirements that govern Owner -Builders as well as employers.
//�e' 2. I agree to notify the issuer of this form immediately of any additions, deletions, or changes to any of the information I
have provided on this form. Licensed contractors are regulated by laws designed to protect the public. If you contract with
someone who does not have a license, the Contractors' State License Board may be unable to assist you with any financial loss
you may sustain as a result of a complaint. Your only remedy against unlicensed Contractors may be in civil court. It is also
important for you to understand that if an unlicensed Contractor or employee of that individual or firm is injured while working
on your property, you may be held liable for damages. If you obtain a permit as Owner -Builder and wish to hire Contractors,
you will be responsible for verifying whether or not those Contractors are properly licensed and the status of their workers'
compensation insurance coverage.
Before a building permit can be issued, this form must be completed and signed by the property owner and returned to
the agency responsible for issuing the permit. Note: A copy of the property owner's driver's license, form notarization, or
other verification acceptable to the agency is require o be presented when the permit is issued to verify the property
owner's signature.
Signature of property owner Date: �S
Note: The following Authorization Form is required to be completed by the property owner only when designating
an agent of the property owner to apply for a construction permit for the Owner -Builder.
AUTHORIZATION OF AGENT TO ACT ON PROPERTY OWNER'S BEHALF
Excluding the Notice to Property Owner, the execution of which I understand is my personal responsibility, I hereby authorize
the following person(s) to act as my agent(s) to apply for, sign, and file the documents necessary to obtain an Owner -Builder
Permit for my project. _

GLOSSARY .
Flush Installation - type of installation where front face of fireplace

Perpendicular Side Wall - applies to minimum clearance between
side wall and fireplace opening.
Nailing Flange - extended part on both sides of fireplace face that

SELECTING LOCATION
To determine safest and most efficient location for fireplace, you
must take into consideration the following guidelines:
1. The location must allow for proper clearances (see below).
2. Consider a location where the fireplace will not be affected by
drafts, air conditioning ducts, windows or doors..
3. A location that avoids the cutting of joists or roof rafters will
make installation easier.
4. If an outside air kit is to be installed, accessibility to outside
combustion air must be considered. This can also be achieved
through a vented crawl space in some cases (see Optional
Outside Air Kit on page 7).
5. If gas line is to be installed, consider location of gas supply.
MINIMUM CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES
Back and sides of fireplace 3/4" minimum;
Top spacers 0"
Perpendicular side wall to opening of unit' 14" minimum
Bottom of fireplace to floor (step 2 of Framing) 0" minimum
Mantel clearances see Mantel clearances, page 6
