It's true that the city of Los Angeles is only issued 2. However the county of Los Angeles has issued 90. Still, those are both a fraction of the applications that have been submitted.

I know the governor in the mayor have issued executive orders to help speed up the process and also set up a permitting shop close to the location to help speed things along. Unfortunately, even with that it seems to be moving at a snail's pace.

Having been through the process myself in a highly populated suburban area the process can take months. It will never be fast enough for anyone. But it's one of those things that we need to ensure that the buildings we are working and living in are safe for us to do so.

TLDR it sucks but it's just the bureaucracy at work.
Is bureaucracy a good thing?
