Conditional Use Permit No. CUP-297-2026

The City of Garden Grove is considering a conditional use permit to allow an existing mini-market to continue operating under its existing State Alcoholic Beverage Control Type 21 Off-Sale General License, which permits the sale of alcoholic beverages for consumption off the premises. The request is tied to the ongoing use of the property and seeks formal approval to maintain this licensed activity without altering its fundamental nature. Concurrently, the Zoning Administrator will evaluate whether the project qualifies for a categorical exemption under the California Environmental Quality Act, which would mean no further environmental review is required due to the minimal or nonexistent impact of the proposed activity on the surrounding environment. The application is being reviewed under Conditional Use Permit No. CUP-297-2026 and was posted for public awareness on May 28, 2026. The project applicant is CT Trading Inc., which is responsible for the operation of the mini-market and is the primary point of contact for the permit process. Jun Kim, the Contract Assistant Planner at the City of Garden Grove, serves as the official city point of contact for administrative and procedural inquiries. The location of the proposed activity is in Garden Grove, California, with the ZIP code 92844, and all regulatory actions are being handled under the jurisdiction of the City of Garden Grove, within the state of California. The public can access additional information about the project through the California Environmental Quality Act online portal using the provided project identifier.
