My city or county isn't in the dropdown
Quick answer: Open the City or county field and type to search. If your city or county isn't there, pick Other (not listed) at the bottom and type the name in Enter city or county name. The review still checks your plans against California state code, but local rules are less complete.
Steps
-
In New Project or on /start, click the City or county field.
-
Type part of the name in Search cities and counties.... Try the official name, such as the city or the county for an unincorporated area.
-
If it says "No city or county found," pick Other (not listed) at the bottom.

-
Type the name in Enter city or county name and finish the form.
What works without full local support
- State code review: California Building, Residential, Mechanical, Plumbing, Electrical, Fire, and Energy codes.
- Both flows: pre-check and corrections response.
What's less reliable
- Local setbacks, fees, fire zones, and amendments.
- Local forms and handouts.
- Ask AI answers for that city or county.
