Road Permits
Our Permits Division, in accordance with State Law, County Ordinance, and the policies of the Board of Supervisors, issues transportation permits for over-size loads vehicles. This section also issues encroachment permits for any act or encroachment placed in a County-maintained road and special event permits related to special uses of County road rights of way.
Kern County requires a permit for all work performed in the County right of way. The permit office must be notified 48 hours prior to the start of any work. The County has specific requirements for each different type of permit.
