Why is permits & approvals different in North County Inland San Diego?

Larger lots in Vista, San Marcos, and Escondido often feel like the permit process should be simple, but detached garages and older accessory structures need to be properly addressed before a new ADU can be permitted alongside them. Rental demand is climbing fast in these cities, and the homeowners who move quickly on approvals are the ones collecting rent while neighbors are still waiting on corrections. We keep the process moving so you're not losing months to back-and-forth.
