2538 Durant Ave Use Permit #ZP2025-0048

The project at 2538 Durant Avenue in Berkeley, California, involves a modification to an existing State Density Bonus development originally approved under Use Permit ZP2022-0097, seeking to increase the number of residential bedrooms from 200 to 216. Alongside this expansion, the applicant is requesting a waiver to reduce the required bicycle parking facilities and a concession to exempt the project from the in-lieu fee for the Percentage for Public Art program. The project is classified as an exempt in-fill development under CEQA Section 15332 due to its minimal environmental impact and the absence of significant exterior alterations to the surrounding neighborhood. All modifications are being processed through the City of Berkeley Planning Division, with the Notice of Exemption signed on October 6, 2025, and posted on October 17, 2025. The location of performance is clearly identified as 94704, and the primary point of contact for administration is the Senior Planner at the City’s Planning Division, with the applicant represented by Studio KDA.
