CUP-438 Pacific Oaks Academy

Pacific Oaks Academy is seeking approval to partially convert an existing church property at 2280 Antonio Avenue in Camarillo, California, into a private school facility within a Single Family Residential (R-1) zoning district through the issuance of a Conditional Use Permit designated as CUP-438. The application is administratively managed by the City of Camarillo as the lead agency under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), with no federal contract framework or FAR clauses applicable to the process. The project relies on a Class 1 categorical exemption under CEQA guidelines, which permits minor alterations to existing structures without triggering comprehensive environmental review, provided no significant impact is anticipated. Required documentation includes a certified exemption finding, a Notice of Exemption, a No Effect Determination from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, and payment of associated environmental filing fees, all submitted in hard copy to state and county offices. Payment for these fees is made directly to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife or the Ventura County Clerk’s Office, with no formal invoicing system, electronic payment portal, or federal accounting codes involved. The applicant, James Royals, and the city’s lead planner, Serena Gonzalez, serve as the primary points of contact, and while no formal contract type, period of performance, delivery schedule, or pricing structure exists, the issuance of the permit constitutes the sole deliverable. The process is purely administrative and regulatory, governed by California Code of Regulations Title 14 and related environmental statutes, with no procurement elements, evaluation factors, quality inspection standards, or contractor roles defined beyond compliance with state-mandated filing requirements.
