Question:
Can a property get a building permit with a well on another parcel a block away ( Approx. 2,000 feet or more)on private property?

Answer:
The water service proposed would not be allowed per section 609.7 of the County of Los Angeles Plumbing Code if more than one lot must be crossed, only adjoining lots may be served by a well with proper cause and legal easement and approvals from the Department of Regional Planning and the Department of Health Services.
