Important Note (BSS / StreetsLA BMP Permits, Los Angeles)

What Public Ready handles for BMP filing (Los Angeles)

Permit Intake + Scope Confirmation

We review your work limits, dates, footprint, and access needs to determine what the permit will require.

Traffic Control Plan (TCP), When Required

If the permit conditions require traffic control documentation, we prepare the TCP package aligned to the work area and constraints.

Documentation + Agency Coordination

We coordinate required project details and supporting documents tied to conditions (including related LADOT needs when applicable).

Temporary No-Parking Posting, When Applicable

If the job needs temporary no-parking support, we align the posting plan and documentation with the schedule and location.

Frequently Asked Questions (Los Angeles)

Do I always need a BMP if I have a dumpster?

Often yes when it occupies public space, but requirements depend on location and whether it sits on private property vs. public right-of-way.

Do BMP permits always require a TCP?

No. TCPs are required when your work impacts traffic flow, pedestrian routing, or safety conditions that require traffic control documentation.

How long does the process take?

For the BMP application, approval or denial is typically 3–5 business days after submission. Timelines can extend if attachments are required or if the application is missing information.

Can requirements change after submittal?

Yes. Agencies may add conditions based on field realities or updated rules.

How much does a BMP permit cost?

BMP permit fees are typically based on the square footage of public right-of-way area being occupied (your footprint). The final amount is set by the reviewing authority and can vary by project conditions.
