Permits & fees

Red tape in Pomona, handled

Permitting an ADU touches a dozen departments and a stack of fees. We run every one — and it’s already in your fixed, all-in price.

Reviewed by the City of Pomona Planning Division

What California’s statewide ADU law means for your Pomona property:

  • California law requires cities to approve a complete ADU application ministerially (no public hearing) within 60 days.
  • Detached ADUs up to 800 sq ft with 4-foot side and rear setbacks must be allowed by right, and most lots qualify for an ADU up to 1,200 sq ft.
  • No additional off-street parking can be required when the property is within half a mile of public transit.
  • Owner-occupancy cannot be required for ADUs permitted through the end of 2025, making an ADU a true rental-income option.

Every city fee — already in your price

No surprise municipal bills. We absorb every Pomona permit and city fee into one fixed, all-in price.

  • Permit & plan-check fees
  • School district fees
  • Utility hookups
  • Fire & public works
  • We run all ~11 city & county departments — plan check, building, fire, public works, utilities, and school fees.
  • Our Formal Property Analysis verifies 0+ property & city items — fire sprinklers, school & plan-check fees, lot coverage, Title 24 — before we build.

Specific setbacks, fees, and overlay rules are confirmed for your exact parcel during your free Formal Property Analysis.

Local know-how

Why homeowners build in Pomona

Pomona pairs strong rental demand — driven by Cal Poly Pomona and Western University — with a wide range of established neighborhoods, making it one of the most versatile ADU markets we serve. We have built here for families creating a safe, single-story home for aging parents while also adding future rental income, and the process felt, in one homeowner’s words, smooth with no stress whatsoever.

From the historic homes of Lincoln Park to the larger lots in the north and the neighborhoods near the colleges, Pomona offers real flexibility on size and placement. Single-story, accessible designs are especially popular here for multigenerational living, and we design them for genuine independence.

At just five miles from our Upland office, Pomona projects get fast, attentive service.

Good to know

Pomona ADU questions, answered

Yes — accessible, single-story ADUs are one of the most popular builds we do in Pomona, giving aging parents a private, safe home while staying close to family.

Very much so. Demand from Cal Poly Pomona and Western University supports steady rental interest, and current law does not require owner-occupancy for ADUs permitted through 2025.

The City of Pomona Planning Division reviews ADU applications, and Backyard Estates handles the entire process for you.
