Damon-

I just obtained a building permit for my tower in San Mateo County, so you 
probably want LA County hams to answer your question.  But it appears from 
the ordinance that if you meet all the requirements of 22.52.1430, then you 
already have Planning approval.  All that stuff in 22.52.1440 is for a 
waiver if you don't already meet the 1430 requirements.  I would suggest you 
call the Building Inspector, tell him your proposed structure meets all the 
requirements of 1430 and if you may therefore apply for a building permit. 
If you need something in writing from Planning, he'll tell you.  Consider 
yourself lucky that LA County provides this kind of ordinance.  Here in 
unincorporated San Mateo County, there is nothing defined for amateur radio 
antennas, only commercial cellualr structures.  So I had to provide all the 
input listed on 22.52.1440, plus address a CEQA (California Environmental 
Quality Act) check list as well.  Fortunately there were no red-legged frogs 
to be found...!

Good luck es 73,

Steve
