California Republic Leadership Academy Public Elementary Charter School

The project involves transforming an existing commercial building into a new 864-student charter elementary school under the California Republic Leadership Academy, located in Orange, California, with a zip code of 92868. The scope includes extensive interior renovations to convert existing space into additional classrooms, adapting the current structure to meet educational requirements without major new construction. Alongside the building conversion, two new play areas will be built to support student activities, and these will replace 111 off-street parking spaces currently on the site, signaling a shift in land use from commercial parking to educational facilities. The initiative is led by the City of Orange, with Lauren Briggs serving as the primary point of contact for planning and coordination, and David Hyun listed as a partner involved in the project. The forecast was posted on July 14, 2026, indicating the planning phase is active, though no specific solicitation number or set-aside classification has been assigned yet. The project falls under the jurisdiction of California state oversight, and while the NAICS code and organization type are not provided, the focus remains on public education infrastructure. All work will occur on-site in Orange, and communication regarding the project direction can be directed to the provided contact information. The project is tracked under the CEQA Net database with the identifier 2026070461, emphasizing compliance with environmental review processes in California.
