Full replacements in Rolling Hills Estates generally require a permit through the Rolling Hills Estates building department, with an inspection once the work is finished. Realistically, structural work on a Rolling Hills Estates roof covering triggers a separate review beyond the roofing permit itself. Los Angeles County is no different.
A good Rolling Hills Estates roofer will talk you out of work you do not need, which is the clearest signal there is.
