Extractions: Other Local Government Links " Why can't I just build . . . " One of the overriding concerns of government is to protect the health, safety, and general welfare of the community. Building permits assure the community that applicable structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, or fire codes have been checked and that the construction has been inspected. Without building permits, you may endanger yourself, your family, or the subsequent user of the structure. Even if you are knowledgeable in the construction trades, what assurance does the buyer of that structure have that the job was built correctly and inspected unless the City has a record of it? Lending institutions often ask for this type of information to protect the value of their real estate loans. Planning permits (site development plan approval) may be required for certain projects. The review helps ensure that the land use is compatible with the community. The process serves to inform the adjacent property owners about the future plans for that "vacant lot next door." "

California Elections Data Archive
and the office of the california Secretary of and school district elections throughoutthe state. Election results from counties, cities, and community college
http://www.csus.edu/calst/Cal_Studies/CEDA.html

Extractions: Publications California has 58 counties, 475 incorporated cities and more than 1,100 school and community college districts. Every year these jurisdictions hold elections to select county supervisors, city council members, school board trustees and other elective offices as well as deciding the fate of hundreds of ballot measures. The outcomes of these elections affect millions of Californians while also creating an invaluable source of information. But with the sheer number of local jurisdictions in California, the task of monitoring local elections is nearly impossible for individuals. The California Elections Data Archive or CEDA is a unique resource as it is the only place in California where scholars and students, journalists and activists, citizens and public agencies can access a statewide database of local election results. CEDA is a joint project of the Center for California Studies, the Institute for Social Research, both of California State University, Sacramento and the office of the California Secretary of State.
