The City of Burbank, California’s Community Development Department has expanded the online permit feature for residents to easily apply for and obtain instant solar and battery storage system permits for single-family residential installations through a City partnership with Symbium Corp.
The streamlined online permitting process allows residents to check project eligibility, create a Burbank Online Permits account, apply for an instant solar permit with Symbium, and schedule inspections.
Symbium’s automated system verifies code compliance and prepares ready-to-use permits for roof-mounted single-family residential installations up to 38.4 kW.
“This state-of-the-art platform that provides instant solar permits online will allow residents to quickly obtain a solar permit for the installation of a residential rooftop solar system via the online platform that will verify compliance with state and local building codes in real-time,” said Community Development Director Patrick Prescott.
“This is a significant advancement in promoting renewable energy and streamlining Burbank residents’ experience in obtaining solar permits. This online platform, provided by Symbium, integrates seamlessly with the City’s online applications and makes real-time compliance verification possible,” he said.
