County Planning File PLN230033 (Minor Subdivision)

San Benito County is advancing a minor land subdivision project under Planning File PLN230033, involving the division of an 115.87-acre parcel into three lots measuring 15.00 acres, 15.11 acres, and 84.03 acres, with a 1.73-acre road dedication to meet local access requirements. The project is classified as a non-construction administrative action and is exempt from full environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) via categorical exemptions §15301(c) and §15304(a), which apply to minor land divisions and small public improvements with negligible environmental impact. No construction or road capacity expansion is planned, and all work is limited to boundary delineation and minimal road alignment adjustments to comply with San Benito County Code standards. The project is located at 859 Cowden Road in Hollister, California, with the San Benito County Resource Management Agency serving as the approving authority, and San Benito Engineering identified as the performing entity responsible for preparing and submitting the tentative parcel map and supporting documentation. There is no formal procurement structure or federal contract framework evident in this submission; it functions as a land use planning forecast with no solicitation number, contract type, pricing, or financial terms. No Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clauses, award evaluation factors, contracting officer roles, payment instructions, or invoicing systems apply, and no UEI, CAGE, or socioeconomic certifications are required or provided. The administrative process requires a certified exemption finding and confirmation of any Notice of Exemption filing, but completion of these elements is not yet documented. Submission is expected via traditional paper-based channels to either the County Clerk’s office in Hollister or the Office of Planning and Research in Sacramento, though no formal deadline, page limits, or electronic submission protocols are specified. Performance is tied to regulatory approval rather than a defined timeline, and acceptance occurs through the County’s Resource Management Agency upon compliance with CEQA and local zoning codes. The absence of contract-specific clauses, delivery schedules, or financial data confirms this is an administrative land use action, not a goods or services procurement under federal guidelines.
