Resource Library

Welcome to the Resource Library! Here you will find forms and handouts provided by the Planning & Building Department. Handouts are meant to educate you on specific topics and forms are required to be completed for permit issuance.

In addition to forms and handouts the Humboldt County GIS (paired with the Web GIS Guide) can be used to find hazards, natural resources, and other characteristics of your parcel. See the Important GIS Layers handout to see which parcel characteristics have a large effect on permit issuance for your proposed development.

At minimum your development will have to comply with County Code and California Title 24 Building Codes. Other standards may apply depending on the scope and location of your development. Goodluck!
