Film permits
Our process is modeled after the suggested format of the California Film Commission. We would like to help in any way we can to accommodate your filming needs, but keep in mind that Piedmont is primarily a residential community.
Types
There are 2 types of filming permits:
Resident notification
To ensure that our residents are given adequate notice of filming activity, there is a 10-day notification period associated with the request for a permit.
You need to submit your application at least 15 days in advance of the desired date of filming.
