Conditional Use Permit 25-0008 - AutoZone Parts Inc.

The City of Cathedral City is proposing a Conditional Use Permit for the construction of a 31,635 square foot AutoZone Mega Hub auto parts store on a 1.82-acre vacant building pad within the existing Canyon Plaza North shopping center. The project qualifies as an infill development under CEQA Class 32 categorical exemption criteria, which requires confirmation that the site is previously developed, within a commercial zone, consistent with the general plan, and that it will not cause significant environmental impacts such as traffic congestion, habitat loss, or impacts to historical resources. The permit, identified as CUP 25-0008, is being administered through local land use and environmental review processes governed by the California Environmental Quality Act, specifically referencing Sections 15332 and 15300.2 of the CEQA Guidelines, along with related provisions of the Public Resources Code. No federal procurement elements are involved, and the transaction does not constitute a contract under the Federal Acquisition Regulation; there are no FAR clauses, pricing data, contract types, payment terms, or federal acquisition metadata present. The applicant, AutoZone Parts Inc., is responsible for completing all construction and site improvements in accordance with local planning regulations and the conditions of the exemption. The City of Cathedral City, through its Associate Planner Dominique Camps, serves as the lead agency contact and reviewing authority, with the project site located at 67740 East Palm Canyon Drive. No solicitation, contract value, delivery schedule, invoicing procedures, or federal contractor certifications such as UEI, CAGE codes, or socioeconomic status designations are included, as this is a local land-use permitting action. The only required documentation for approval includes a Notice of Exemption and a certified finding supporting the Class 32 exemption, with submission directed to the City’s Office of Planning and Research. The project does not involve federal funding, procurement oversight, or contract administration requirements, and all processes are confined to state and municipal planning and environmental compliance procedures.
