Grand Prix 2026-2030

The City of Long Beach has issued a five-year Coastal Development Permit covering the annual Grand Prix events from 2026 through 2030, authorizing temporary improvements for traffic management and public accommodations during each event weekend. The permit applies to specific dates in April of each year: April 17–19, 2026; April 16–18, 2027; April 7–9, 2028; April 20–22, 2029; and April 12–14, 2030, with work occurring at the Downtown Long Beach Shoreline within ZIP code 90802. The project involves the installation and complete removal of temporary facilities such as signage, barriers, staging areas, and traffic control systems, all of which must be fully restored to their original condition after each event. Environmental compliance has been established through a Categorical Exemption under CEQA Section 15304, classifying the work as minor alterations to land with negligible or no permanent environmental impact, bypassing the need for a full environmental impact report. The permit is administered by the City of Long Beach Community Development Department, with primary oversight through the Zoning Administration Officer and the Special Projects Officer, who serve as the main points of contact. No federal acquisition regulation clauses, pricing data, contract value estimates, or formal procurement evaluation criteria are included, as the document reflects a forecast for a municipal permitting action rather than a competitive federal contract. There is no specified contract type, payment method, invoicing procedure, or accounting data, and no federal representations, certifications, or socioeconomic requirements are applicable. All performance obligations are tied to successful event execution and full site restoration, with inspection and acceptance responsibilities resting solely with the City of Long Beach as the approving authority.
