Administrative Plan Review No. 25-027, Coastal Development Permit Exemption No. 25-108, and Cateqorical Exemption No. 25—083

The project involves landscaping, irrigation system installation, and outdoor lighting improvements at 6956 Dume Drive in Malibu, California, under Administrative Plan Review No. 25-027, with associated Coastal Development Permit Exemption No. 25-108 and Categorical Exemption No. 25-083 under CEQA Guidelines Section 15304(b), which allows for minor alterations to land without requiring full environmental review. The City of Malibu is the lead agency overseeing the exemption process, with BARNETT CONSTRUCTION identified as the applicant acting on behalf of the property owner, Highlands Investment Group LLC. The notice was posted on January 23, 2026, and signed on January 5, 2026, indicating this is a pre-award administrative action rather than a fully executed contract, and no contract value, pricing details, or financial terms are provided. No formal solicitation, contract clauses, or procurement structures governed by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) are present—this is a local land use exemption, not a federal procurement. The place of performance is clearly defined as Malibu, California, but no delivery schedule, period of performance, invoicing method, payment office, contract administration data, inspection criteria, or evaluation factors are outlined. Key personnel and contracting officers are not designated, and no representations, certifications, or socioeconomic status information for the contractor are included. The project does not reference any technical specifications, construction standards, packaging requirements, or special contract conditions, and no formal submission guidelines, deadlines, or portals for proposals are communicated. This document serves primarily as a notice of environmental exemption approval, with insufficient detail to constitute a binding contract or competitive procurement.
