Conditional Use Permit No. CUP-302-2026

Conditional Use Permit No. CUP-302-2026 is a request submitted to the City of Garden Grove Zoning Administrator for the operation of an existing 7-Eleven Market located at 12971 Nelson Street, at the northwest corner of Garden Grove Boulevard and Nelson Street. The primary objective of this request is to obtain a new original state Alcoholic Beverage Control Type 21 Off-Sale General License, which serves as an upgrade from a Type 20 license. As part of this process, it is recommended that the Zoning Administrator revoke the previous conditional use permit for the tenant space, identified as CUP-110-85. The project is managed by Assistant Planner Jun Kim and the project applicant James Willis. It has been granted a Categorical Exemption under CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 for Existing Facilities, as the license upgrade is determined to have negligible or no expansion of use and does not intensify the existing operations. The final approval of the permit is the primary deliverable for this action.
