Administrative Use Permit AUP 2025-02

The proposed project involves the continued operation of an automotive repair facility at 2395 Ogulin Canyon Road in Clearlake, California, occupying approximately 2,800 square feet of interior space within a freestanding industrial building. The space is allocated to a 578-square-foot office, two repair bays each measuring 912 square feet, and a 448-square-foot storage and work area, with an additional 10,500-square-foot fenced yard for vehicle handling and related activities. This is not a procurement or federal contract but an Administrative Use Permit (AUP 2025-02) issued by the City of Clearlake under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines, specifically relying on a categorical exemption under Section 15301, Class 1, for the maintenance of an existing facility without expansion. The permit approval process is administrative and based solely on compliance with local zoning and environmental regulations, with no competitive evaluation, pricing, or contracting elements. The project does not involve any federal acquisition regulation clauses, contract value estimates, delivery schedules, inspection criteria, or procurement-specific requirements. The primary documentation includes a Notice of Exemption and a certified exemption finding, submitted physically to the City of Clearlake at 14050 Olympic Drive and a secondary copy to the Office of Planning and Research in Sacramento. The permit was posted on December 15, 2025, with a submission deadline of December 3, 2025, and was signed by Michael Taylor, Associate Planner, who serves as the sole point of contact for administrative inquiries. No government funding, invoicing systems, contract administration roles, or socioeconomic set-asides are applicable, and the activity remains strictly within the scope of local land use permitting under state environmental law.
