4745 Carpinteria Avenue Mixed Use Project Revision

The project at 4745 Carpinteria Avenue in Carpinteria, California, involves a minor land use revision to convert 2,807 square feet of existing second-floor general commercial space into a six-room hotel, comprising one one-bedroom unit and five studio units, with no exterior modifications or structural changes. The proposal aligns with the City of Carpinteria’s General Plan and Zoning Code and has been granted a categorical exemption under California’s Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as an infill development, qualifying under Public Resources Code Sections 21080(b)(1), 21083, 21110, and implementing regulations such as CCR §15332. The city, acting as the lead agency, approved the exemption on March 26, 2024, and the project is publicly forecasted with a posted date of August 7, 2025, under NAICS code 236220 for commercial building construction. The principal planner, Bret McNulty, serves as the primary point of contact, and the project proponent, Justin Klentner, is listed as the project manager, though no formal contracting officer or contracting representative roles are designated. There is no identified contract value, pricing structure, payment office, invoicing method, or federal acquisition regulation (FAR) clauses, as the proceeding is governed entirely by state and local land use procedures rather than federal procurement protocols. No formal delivery schedule, performance period, inspection criteria, or evaluation factors for award are specified, and the project does not involve physical construction, packaging, labeling, or technical specifications beyond the change of occupancy use within the existing footprint. The place of performance is clearly defined as 93013, Carpinteria, California, and the only required documentation is the certified Notice of Exemption filed by the city.
