Create fast-track permits for small home solar panel systems

In Plain English
California law requires cities to speed up solar permit approval for small residential rooftop systems. Richmond currently processes these permits through the standard building permit system. The new law creates a separate, faster approval process specifically for home solar installations under certain size limits.
