DCR CORE RECORD NO. 200335

The City of Los Angeles Department of Cannabis Regulation has authorized the continued operation of Luvbrite Collective, a licensed cannabis microbusiness located at 2126 S Cotner Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90025, under DCR CORE RECORD NO. 200335. This authorization permits indoor cultivation of cannabis with a canopy under 2,000 square feet using soil-based, LED-lit, and HVAC-controlled systems, alongside wholesale distribution of whole flower and pre-rolls under a Type 11 license, all within an existing 6,000-square-foot commercial structure without any expansion or new construction. The project qualifies for a CEQA Class 1 and Class 32 Categorical Exemption, as it involves no physical alteration to the premises and is consistent with existing zoning and the General Plan, eliminating the need for further environmental analysis. All operations must comply with California Department of Cannabis Control regulations, including mandatory use of the METRC tracking system for full batch-level product traceability, proper labeling, and secure handling. The business is operated as a social equity microbusiness, with 51% ownership by Michael Kumer, who qualifies under Los Angeles Municipal Code criteria due to disproportionate impact from prior cannabis enforcement. The facility shares its premises with Green Mind LLC, another licensed entity, requiring strict operational segregation and independent compliance with state regulations. The applicant is responsible for maintaining all aspects of compliance, including security measures such as surveillance cameras and access control systems, proper storage in DCC-compliant locked units, and adherence to waste disposal protocols that prohibit hazardous materials on-site. Packaging and labeling are conducted on-site in a controlled environment, using standardized materials that meet state requirements, though specific details on child-resistant features or tamper-evident seals are not documented. Inspection and acceptance occur at the origin facility, with oversight performed by the Department of Cannabis Regulation, which evaluates compliance strictly against the Los Angeles Municipal Code, particularly Sections 104.03, 105.02, and 104.04, without a formal scoring or cost-based evaluation. Approval is granted on a binary basis—meeting all legal thresholds or being denied. No federal contract clauses, pricing data, payment terms, invoicing methods, or military standards are applicable, as this is a state-regulated licensing action, not a federal procurement. The project operates under no specified contract period or delivery schedule, and while energy usage is estimated at 150–200
