Planning your work
Milpitas publishes a list of work for which a building permit is not required, covering items such as small detached sheds, low fences and finish work. Work outside that list is not automatically exempt. Confirm the address, the proposed scope and which permits apply with the City of Milpitas before work starts. This reference concerns the City of Milpitas; it does not establish requirements for a neighbouring jurisdiction or for an individual property.
