If you don't have an appointment, just leave and make one. Will you still have to wait, yes. If you do show up without an appointment, then get ready to wait. And wait some more.

There was a nice guard inside the door, who directed us to the new Hall of Records, which was fortunately very close by. So close that we could walk and leave our car at the parking meter we'd just fed. The Department of Health is on Fulton and the Hall of Records (Recorder's Office) is on Van Ness.

Man, what wonderful service I received here. Juliet just about held my hand walking me through all the double checking I wanted to do. Patient, kind and professional, she really brought the human touch (without actually touching a human) to this department. Mary Ann, likewise was awesome and helpful. And it's a good thing, as I had them laughing at my corny jokes, Rob, their supervisor, came up to the front counter as well. As it would turn out, Rob and I go the same church, Riverpark Bible Church. Go Riverpark! Anyway, as a result of this trip and the fantastic service, I learned that I need to take advantage of a 'Homeowner's Exemption Form' that essentially with reduce the value from which the property is taxed about 7K. Hot Dog! Thank you good Lord for the good people you plugged me in with today who further helped me to ensure my interests! I might have missed it were it not for their awesome service! In way of encouragement to you, Juliet, and the staff, your extra attention was so greatly appreciated! Keep up the good work! -G

OMG! It only took five minutes to get time registered on the parking meter on Tulare Street. Lol…read more The meters have been changed to cards only, but the screens are very hard to read in the sunlight. No debit cards, credit cards only, BTW. So this visit was to get an update on an already approved building permit. Due to a small error, we needed a red line on wording that shouldn't have been on our original plans. So here we are. Glad to see that the lobby has reopened since being closed due to Covid months ago. The hubby didn't have an appointment and was nicely surprised to be helped on the spot without one. Usually you make an appointment and come back in a bit. Anyway, the first guy to help him was full of "no's" but when another guy came out, he was very informative and helpful. Got one item taken care of, but one thing seems to lead to another in the construction world. Lol. He did let us know what we need to do next and it looks to be an easy fix. Needless to say, we're quite pleased with the outcome of this visit! Reminders-making an appointment is best and on Fridays their hours are only 830-1230. 9-5 on Mon-Thurs. Good luck with your construction plans, Fresno residents!
