DCR CORE RECORD NO. 310003

The City of Los Angeles Department of Cannabis Regulation is authorizing the retail sale of commercial cannabis products at 8707 W Venice Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90034, under a conditional license issued to Pineapple Venice Inc., a Social Equity Applicant with 51% ownership by individuals qualifying under the local Social Equity Program. The operation is limited to an existing commercial structure without any physical expansion or increase in building footprint, ensuring compliance with the C2-2D-CPIO zoning designation and alignment with the General Plan. The project qualifies for a Class 1 and Class 32 categorical exemption under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), eliminating the need for further environmental analysis as no exceptions under CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 apply. Operations must adhere to strict hours of 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., seven days a week, and require active state licensure from the California Department of Cannabis Control, along with final approvals from the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety, Los Angeles Fire Department, and the County Department of Public Health. The facility is staffed by six employees, distributed across two shifts, and is subject to unannounced inspections by DCR personnel to ensure ongoing regulatory compliance. The business must complete neighborhood notification to the South Robertson Neighborhood Council and fulfill all obligations under LAMC Section 104.20, including governance and profit-sharing requirements tied to its Social Equity status. No pricing or contract value is specified, and award is determined solely on meeting all mandatory regulatory criteria, with no competitive evaluation or cost-based selection. The contract is an administrative license tied to the parcel with APN 4312004002 and DCR Core Record No. 310003, with full compliance with applicable city codes and state laws being the sole condition for continued operation.
