Ok when I opened it up, I was expecting something else.

and Answers this question::



19851.

(a) The official copy of the plans maintained by the building department of the city or county provided for under Section 19850 shall be open for inspection only on the premises of the building department as a public record. The copy may not be duplicated in whole or in part except (1) with the written permission, which permission shall not be unreasonably withheld as specified in subdivision (f), of the certified, licensed or registered professional or his or her successor, if any, who signed the original documents and the written permission of the original or current owner of the building, or, if the building is part of a common interest development, with the written permission of the board of directors or governing body of the association established to manage the common interest development, or (2) by order of a proper court or upon the request of any state agency.


Thanks
 
That is contrary to what our attorney has told us if a written requests under the "Freedom of Information Act" is made.
We do not provide copies unless it is a written request under the FIA
