Ventura County Siding & Stucco.

LA siding — three-coat stucco the regional standard, fiber-cement on contemporary homes. Tear-off to sheathing, new weather barrier, re-side.

Ventura County permits run cleanly under state ADU law. Each city (Oxnard, Camarillo, Thousand Oaks, Ventura) has its own building department, but all hold ministerial review at 60 days from a complete submittal. The variables are the Coastal Zone (waterfront parcels) and Very High Fire Hazard Zones along the foothills.
