In a continued effort to improve virtual development services, and in preparation for the gradual reopening of in-person services, the City of Los Angeles has implemented this centralized appointment system. This appointment system enables our customers to schedule appointments, either in-person or virtually, to help resolve complex issues for the departments and services listed in the table below when further assistance is necessary. The services currently available for appointment bookings are being phased in gradually to provide an optimal customer experience and are identified by green check marks. We will continue to offer the primary means to complete these virtual services without need for appointment as also shown in the table. We recommend that the primary means of applying for services without an appointment continue to be utilized as the first approach, and that the use of appointments be reserved for resolving complicated issues that would benefit from a meeting with a City representative.
