Administrative Design Review (PLAN-ADR-26-0006)

Administrative Design Review PLAN-ADR-26-0006 involves the modification of an existing cannabis facility located at 68350 Commercial Road in Cathedral City, Riverside County, California. The project focuses on interior floor plan modifications to transition the facility's operational use from a combined cultivation, manufacturing, and distribution operation to a cultivation-only use. This facility was originally approved by the City of Cathedral City Planning Commission on September 21, 2016, under CUP No. 16-020. The City of Cathedral City issued a Notice of Exemption on July 29, 2026, citing Section 15061(b)(3) Commonsense Statutory Exemptions. This determination is based on the fact that the project is limited to interior changes and does not involve any new development, site modifications, or exterior improvements, thereby resulting in no significant environmental impact. The administrative process is managed by the City of Cathedral City, with Steve Akopyan serving as the applicant and Clarence Smith as the primary planning assistant.
