Covina requires applicants for planning entitlements to notify all property owners within 300 feet of the project site before a public hearing. This affidavit certifies that the accompanying mailing list and labels were pulled from the current Los Angeles County Assessment Roll and are complete, and the City requires the preparer's signature to be sworn before a notary so an inaccurate notice list cannot delay or invalidate the hearing.
Who needs it
Applicants or their representatives filing a Covina planning application that requires public hearing notice to surrounding property owners.
Why it needs a notary
