A fire-code conflict turned into a specific agency question.
The dated ArchX review identified a fire-code source conflict and missing parcel evidence, then set out the specific documents and agency answers to obtain.
Inside the original output
| Matrix item | Evidence still missing | Where to resolve it |
|---|---|---|
| F01 · fire amendments | Enacted ordinance and effective date | LAFD / LADBS |
| Z01 · ADU zoning pathway | Real parcel record, survey and site plan | LADBS zoning / City Planning |
| F03 · sprinkler determination | Primary-house permit history and requirement | LADBS / LAFD |
Selected open items from the dated October 13 test review, not current advice for another site. The full matrix contains the source IDs, missing evidence and next action for each item.
What you can do with it
Bring the project brief and actual parcel documents to the named authority. Record the written answer in the matrix so the team can resolve the filing basis.

This is a dated test output, not current advice for another address. The fictitious site leaves parcel-specific approvals unresolved; sources must be rechecked for a real filing.

What ArchX received.
Read the original request and file list
The request
Same ADU as our Maple Court job (brief in Documents/, plan in Drawings/). We want to file with LADBS in November 2026. Which building code editions and local amendments apply to this detached ADU in the City of Los Angeles for that filing date? Give me a permit matrix: which permits and approvals we need, what evidence we still have to collect, and what we must verify with the city. Also screen federal accessibility: does the ADA, the Fair Housing Act or Section 504 apply to a single privately funded rental ADU? Cite dated sources. I want an editable document for the project file.

The agency replies and parcel documents are now in the folder. Update the permit matrix, attach the new evidence and show what still needs an answer.
