Citizen Access

The County of Ventura is pleased to offer the public online access to the land use permitting process. VC Citizen Access is a web-based program that displays real-time data stored in the County’s land use database, Accela Automation, which is an internal system used by County staff to track land use permits for properties located in the unincorporated areas of the County.

Using VC Citizen Access, members of the public can search and review permit information, and permit applicants and property owners can upload and download documents, look up processing statuses, and pay for permit fees online using a credit card.
