Are carports/canopies illegal in the City of Inglewood?
Yes. Carports and porte cocheres cannot be used in lieu of the code required parking garage. A permit must be obtained in order to have a carport or porte cochere in the City of Inglewood. All requests for permits must go through the Planning Division, located at the 4th floor of Inglewood City Hall. Once Planning approves the request form, materials and location, the Code Enforcement Division will be notified. This process prevents illegal use and construction of structures that diminish both the look and safety standards of our community.
