Lassen Ave Christmas Decorations

The City of Huron will install and remove temporary Christmas decorations on existing light poles along Lassen Avenue (SR-269) in early December 2025, with all decorations required to be fully removed by January 17, 2026. Work will be conducted using a boom lift from sidewalks and public right-of-way wherever possible, with only minimal use of Caltrans right-of-way where sidewalk widths are insufficient. The project involves no ground disturbance, structural modifications, or permanent alterations to infrastructure and is solely intended for seasonal community beautification. The effort is classified under CEQA categorical exemptions Class 1 (Existing Facilities) and Class 4 (Minor Alterations to Land), confirming its low environmental impact and exempt status from further review. The City of Huron is the sole responsible entity for execution and oversight, with no formal contractor identified in the documentation. The primary point of contact is City Manager Virginia Penaloza, who also signed the Notice of Exemption filed on December 2, 2025. No contract value, pricing details, payment terms, invoicing procedures, or federal acquisition regulation clauses are specified, as the project operates under a simplified administrative process. There are no special requirements for security clearances, key personnel, options, subcontracting, or organizational conflicts of interest. Deliveries and performance occur exclusively at the installation site along Lassen Avenue between Palmer Avenue and Tornado Avenue in Huron, CA, with acceptance determined at the location by the City. No packaging, marking, preservation, or MIL-STD specifications apply due to the temporary and non-logistical nature of the work. No solicitation or contract number is available, and the submission process requires only a completed Notice of Exemption form with supporting certification, filed with the State of California’s Office of Planning and Research.
