What this form is
The package explains owner-builder responsibilities and includes a property-owner acknowledgment and an authorization form for an agent. The county says it will not issue an owner-builder permit until the owner has read, initialed, signed, and returned the acknowledgment. The agent authorization is required when the owner designates someone to apply for a construction permit.
Who needs it
Property owners applying for a construction permit as an owner-builder need the acknowledgment, and those designating an agent also complete the authorization form.
How to submit it
Return the completed acknowledgment to the agency at its official address: Community Development Building Department, 50 Diamond Valley Road, Markleeville, CA 96120. The document says the permit will not be issued until the acknowledgment is returned.
About notarization
The forms have no notary block; the owner signs and dates them, and the agent form includes a declaration under penalty of perjury. For signature verification at permit issuance, the county says form notarization or other accepted verification may be presented.
