Catching them on day one shaves 4–8 weeks off the typical cycle.

Yes — 3 inspections are typical: Tear-off / substrate inspection; Underlayment + flashing inspection (some jurisdictions); Final roof inspection.

Does my Oxnard roofing project need a Coastal Development Permit?

If the parcel sits inside the Coastal Zone boundary, yes — a CDP from the local LCP or the CA Coastal Commission stacks on top of the Oxnard Building & Engineering building permit. We screen the parcel against the Coastal Zone map at contract.
