        "text": "Depending on the scope of the accessibility modification, permits may be required in Bay Area cities like Pacifica or San Mateo. Structural changes, such as widening a doorway, altering exterior walls, or building new ramps, typically require permits to ensure compliance with local building codes and safety standards. Minor cosmetic changes or non-structural additions usually do not. We can advise you on specific permit requirements for your project during our consultation.",
