Juanita Way Road Extension Project

The project involves extending the road at the terminus of Juanita Way in Laguna Beach, California, by approximately 18.5 linear feet to enable the creation of a new single-family residence at 2400 Juanita Way (APN 656-131-04). The work includes excavation, grading, road construction, and paving, with full compliance required under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), local zoning codes, and hazardous materials regulations. The project is subject to extensive environmental review, requiring mitigation of impacts related to air quality, noise, biological resources, cultural resources, wildfire risk, and geotechnical stability, with specific measures tied to the City of Laguna Beach’s Municipal Code and fire safety standards, including a mandatory 100-foot defensible space and fuel modification zones. The City of Laguna Beach, through its Community Development Department and Public Works, serves as the lead agency responsible for permitting, inspection, and acceptance, with Heather Steven, Senior Planner, designated as the primary point of contact. Environmental compliance documents, including technical appendices on air quality, noise, biotecnhical conditions, cultural resources, geotechnical analysis, and tribal consultation under AB 52, form the basis of project approval and are publicly accessible via the city’s planning portal. No federal procurement data, contract pricing, FAR clauses, or contractor-specific requirements are present, as this is an environmental review process governed by state and local regulations rather than a federal solicitation or award. Public comment is accepted through March 9, 2026, via mail, email, or online review, with all submissions directed to the City’s Community Development Department at 505 Forest Avenue, Laguna Beach, CA 92651.
