DCR CORE RECORD NO. 100038

The City of Los Angeles Department of Cannabis Regulation has authorized New Age Compassion Care Center, Inc. to operate a commercial cannabis cultivation, processing, and retail facility at 350 W. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. and associated addresses in Los Angeles, CA 90037, under existing zoning designations and state licensing frameworks. The project operates within three pre-existing buildings totaling approximately 40,000 square feet without expanding the physical footprint or increasing energy demand beyond historical levels, thus qualifying for categorical exemptions under CEQA Guidelines Sections 15301 and 15332, which eliminate the need for further environmental review. The applicant holds three state-issued licenses from the California Department of Cannabis Control and complies with Los Angeles Municipal Code Chapter X, Article 5, particularly sections governing permitted uses in M1 and C2 zones, alongside state health and safety codes and waste disposal regulations. Operations include indoor cultivation, packaging, wholesale distribution, and retail sales, with inbound and outbound shipments restricted to weekday mornings between 8:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. PST. The facility is located in a designated Opportunity Zone and State Enterprise Zone, with no hazardous materials present and no requirement for a Hazardous Materials Business Plan. The City of Los Angeles, through its Department of Cannabis Regulation, retains oversight responsibility for regulatory compliance, while the applicant is accountable for adhering to operational standards, including secure waste handling per DCC Regulation §17223 and use of energy-efficient LED lighting. No federal acquisition regulations apply; the activity is governed entirely by municipal and state cannabis licensing procedures. The project has received formal approval under DCR CORE RECORD NO. 100038, with no defined contract term, pricing structure, or procurement method due to its nature as a regulatory licensing action rather than a federal contract award.
