Contra Costa County has approved a land use permit effective July 6, 2026, allowing the ongoing operation of an existing American Tower wireless telecommunications facility located in Oakley, California, with the zip code 94561. The permit does not authorize any changes to the current equipment or infrastructure; it solely confirms the continued use of the facility by Verizon for telecommunications purposes. The permit, identified as County File #CDLP26-02004, was issued by the Zoning Administrator and reflects compliance with local land use regulations for an established structure that has been in continuous operation. No new construction, expansion, or modification is involved, and the authorization is limited to maintaining the status quo of the existing site. The point of contact for the permit is Chloe Partain, Planner I at Contra Costa County, who can be reached via phone or email for inquiries related to the permitting process. An additional point of contact, John Merritt, serves as the Authorized Agent for American Tower and can be contacted separately. The permit was publicly posted on July 7, 2026, through the California Environmental Quality Act reporting system, though no solicitation or procurement process was involved since no new work or bidding is being undertaken. The facility remains a part of the regional wireless network with no anticipated changes to its operational scope or technical specifications.
