1339 West Venice Boulevard/ ZA-2024-6522-CUB

The applicant seeks approval for a Class 2 Conditional Use Permit to allow the sale of a full line of alcohol for off-site consumption at an existing 2,520-square-foot market located at 1339 West Venice Boulevard in Los Angeles, California, with daily operating hours restricted to 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. The request is part of a local land-use entitlement process under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), specifically seeking a Class 1 categorical exemption for the operation of an existing facility with no significant environmental impact, as outlined in CEQA Guidelines Section 15301. The project does not involve construction, expansion, or change in land use, and compliance is limited to administrative authorization through the City of Los Angeles Department of City Planning. No federal procurement mechanisms, contract clauses, or acquisition regulations such as FAR are applicable, as this is purely a municipal land-use permitting action governed by local ordinance and state environmental law. The project identifier ZA-2024-6522-CUB is referenced in connection with the Notice of Exemption filed with the Los Angeles County Clerk/Recorder, and all submissions must be delivered physically to P.O. Box 1208, Norwalk, CA 90650, with no electronic filing options available. The applicant, Merkeb Inc., is represented by Brett Engstrom of LiquorLicense.com, while Jaime Espinoza of the City Planning Department serves as the point of contact. No contract value, payment terms, invoicing protocols, accounting codes, or procurement-specific requirements are present, as this is not a federally funded or procured contract. There are no specified delivery schedules, inspection criteria, packaging standards, performance metrics, or evaluation factors. The only deliverable is the issuance of the conditional use authorization, contingent upon the applicant demonstrating that the project meets CEQA exemption criteria and that none of the exceptions in Section 15300.2 apply, supported by a certified document from the City Planning Department. No representations, certifications, small business status, UEI, CAGE codes, or socioeconomic disclosures are required or provided under federal acquisition frameworks, since the entire process operates strictly within the bounds of local regulatory approval.
