        "text": "To submit an ADU permit application, you generally need architectural plans, structural engineering calculations, site plans, energy efficiency calculations, and often a geotechnical report. The specific requirements can vary by jurisdiction. For instance, some cities in our service area, like Oakland, may have particular historic preservation reviews or specific urban design guidelines that influence the required documentation. Gathering these items accurately and completely upfront is essential to avoid delays.",
