Minnie:

Just as clarification, the link I give you for the LB Development Services Building Permit Records goes off the street address only. If the information is not coming up using the street name as you typed it in, you can use th alpha or numeric street name lookup under the Street Name search block to identify the way the show it in their records. By the way, use the "web reference link". It actually works whereas the link I put in the message only works sometimes. Hope this helps and Dare to Dream.

Be sure to find out your parcel ID number of the property. Permits are filed under that number. You can look that up from the County Accessor's website by knowing the address.

You could go down to the City and look this up, as Barbara recommended OR you can save the trip and do it on-line. City of Long Beach has all their permit archives on line. You can pull all permits, violations and other postings regarding Building and Safety issues on any home in Long Beach by going to http://www2.longbeach.gov/lbds/on_line_services/permit_archive/… following the instructions and typing in the property address. All files are available in .pdf and can be printed from your computer if you want a hard copy. If you need help understanding what you are reading, you can ask a contractor or call the Building Department with your questions. Hope this helps. Dare to Dream.

You can go down to the City of Long Beach-Planning and Building and pull up the permits which will include a drawing of the location of the permitted bathroom.
