        "text": "In Los Angeles, ADU and garage conversion projects typically require planning approval, building permits, and potentially other specific permits depending on the scope. The City of Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety (LADBS) reviews plans for compliance with zoning codes, building codes, and ADU-specific ordinances. This includes ensuring setbacks, lot coverage, height limits, and safety standards are met. Our process includes managing these permit applications to ensure compliance and a smooth approval process.",
