        "text": "In many Bay Area cities, including Pacifica and Daly City, a building permit is typically required for siding replacement, especially if it involves structural changes, significant sheathing repair, or altering exterior wall assemblies. The specific requirements can vary by municipality. Permits ensure the work complies with local building codes, structural safety, and energy efficiency standards.
