HI VISTA, Los Angeles County — Property owners in the unincorporated Antelope Valley can consult county planning, building, fire and health agencies before starting work on rural lots. This is particularly important in Hi Vista, where undeveloped properties may lack established water, road and wastewater infrastructure.

LA County Planning’s Antelope Valley zoning and development guide warns owners to learn which regulations apply before grading, removing vegetation, delivering equipment or beginning construction. Building a fence, placing an accessory structure or creating a driveway can involve more than a simple property-tax question.

Where to ask

The Antelope Valley One-Stop Center is listed at 335A East Avenue K-6, Lancaster, CA 93535. The county guide provides 213-974-6411 for Planning, 661-524-2390 for Building and Safety, 661-949-6319 for Fire and 661-471-4880 for Public Health.

Call first to verify each department’s counter hours; agencies may have different schedules and filing methods. The service center can explain the permit process, but a general inquiry does not itself grant a project approval or confirm that a parcel is legally buildable.
