Conditional Use Permit Case No. 8, Map 203-1

Kern County, California, has issued a conditional use permit for the installation of an 80-foot-tall stealth wireless telecommunications facility designed to mimic a mono-eucalyptus tree, located at the northwest corner of Wildflower Lane and Camellia Drive in the Mettler area within an R-1 low-density residential district. The facility will occupy an 810-square-foot lease area on a 10-acre parcel identified by APN 238-205-14, with an associated equipment shelter, all subject to compliance with Section 19.18.030.D of the Kern County Municipal Code. The project is categorized as exempt under CEQA Section 15303 due to its minor nature and conformity with existing zoning standards, eliminating the need for environmental impact review. The applicant, AT&T Mobility through Eukon Group, initiated the process with a filing date of February 7, 2025, and the project was reviewed by the Kern County Planning Commission, which held a public hearing on January 23, 2025. No formal contract value, pricing, or financial terms were provided, as this is a land-use permitting action rather than a procurement contract. Key contacts include Mayra Martinez, Planner I at Kern County, and Eukon Group’s representative, with no designated contracting officer, COR, COTR, or PCO roles identified. The facility’s stealth design is the primary regulatory condition to mitigate visual impact, with no external technical, packaging, invoicing, or payment specifications referenced. No solicitation number, contract type, delivery schedule, FOB terms, or evaluation criteria apply because the documentation reflects a local zoning approval process, not a federal acquisition or contract award. The project is forecasted with a posted date of January 26, 2026, indicating administrative planning status rather than active procurement.
