Application Number 251180 - Vacation Rental Remodel

The project involves the demolition of existing second-floor exterior structures—including a wall, decking, and trellis located beyond the property line—along with a comprehensive remodel of a two-story residential dwelling to convert it into a legally permitted four-bedroom vacation rental. All work is centered at 204 Beach Drive, Aptos, California, with a ZIP code of 95003, and is classified as ministerial under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) through a categorical exemption under Section 15301 for existing facilities, based on the condition that the structural modifications do not exceed 65 percent of the original building and the existing footprint is preserved. The project is not subject to federal acquisition regulations, as it is a locally administered residential renovation with no formal solicitation, contract value, pricing data, or federal procurement mechanisms identified. Santa Cruz County serves as the overseeing agency, with Alexandra Corvello listed as the primary contact for planning matters. The applicant, Richard Brereton, is the proposer and point of contact for the project, which has been posted as a forecast on December 3, 2025, under NAICS code 236118 for residential remodeling. Inspection and acceptance are expected to occur at the project site, with compliance determined by CEQA guidelines rather than formal construction quality standards or federal inspection protocols. There are no specified delivery schedules, payment terms, invoicing methods, contracting officer appointments, or federal representation requirements, as the process is governed entirely by state-level environmental review and local permitting procedures rather than a competitive procurement framework.
