DP25-0001– Director’s Permit

Director's Permit DP25-0001, issued by the City of San Marcos Planning Division on August 4, 2025, authorizes the use of a portion of an existing 56,390 square foot building for a Goodwill used merchandise sales and wholesale processing and distribution center. The facility is located at 740 Los Vallecitos Boulevard in San Marcos, California, within a Light Industrial (L-I) Zone. The permit is granted on a ministerial basis, as the project involves a new operational use within an existing structure without any proposed physical expansion or structural modifications. The project is categorized as exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 15301, Class 1(a). Joseph Farace, the Planning Division Director, serves as the lead agency contact, while Taylor Harris of CCI is the project applicant. Because this action is a land-use permit rather than a procurement contract, there are no associated financial values, federal acquisition regulations, or competitive evaluation factors. The primary requirement for approval was the filing of a Notice of Exemption and confirmation of compliance with local zoning and environmental review standards.
