In practice, the Simi Valley building department handles the paperwork for roofing the project in Simi Valley, and a licensed roofer pulls it as part of the work rather than leaving it to the homeowner. The permit record for a Simi Valley property is public, which is how a buyer's inspector checks the roof was done properly. Ventura County is no different.
