13114 through 13206 West Warren Avenue Street Repair Project

The City of Los Angeles Bureau of Street Services is undertaking a street repair project at 13114 through 13206 West Warren Avenue in Los Angeles, California, involving the removal and replacement of approximately 500 square feet of asphalt roadway, 230 linear feet of curb and gutter, and 1,100 square feet of sidewalk and driveway approaches. As part of the work, three Stone Pine trees will be removed due to root damage caused by the necessary repairs, and six replacement trees will be planted in accordance with a 2:1 ratio to offset the loss and support environmental sustainability. The project was determined on April 15, 2026, to be statutorily exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act under Public Resources Code Section 21080.25, as it constitutes a pedestrian and bicycle safety improvement within the public right-of-way, performed by City forces with no induced vehicle trips or significant environmental impacts. No external contractors are involved; all work is to be carried out by municipal personnel using City resources. The project was posted as a forecast on April 17, 2026, with performance occurring in March and April of 2026. There is no formal contract value, solicitation number, or pricing structure provided, and no federal acquisition regulation clauses, contract clauses, or socioeconomic requirements are applicable because the project is internally administered. Inspection and acceptance occur on-site by the City, with no designated Contracting Officer’s Representative or Procuring Contracting Officer named, though Hector Banuelos, Superintendent of the Urban Forestry Division, serves as the primary point of contact. The project qualifies under a CEQA exemption that requires filing a Notice of Exemption with the County Clerk in Norwalk, California, and triggers a 35-day statute of limitations. No payment office, invoicing system, accounting codes, or submission formats are specified, indicating this is a municipal capital improvement executed without external procurement procedures.
