Loop Neighborhood Market (PCN25-002)

The Loop Neighborhood Market in Elk Grove, California, is seeking approval to upgrade its alcohol license from Type 20 (off-sale beer and wine) to Type 21 (off-sale beer, wine, and distilled spirits) through a Determination of Public Convenience or Necessity (PCN25-002) with the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control. This administrative action is being processed by the City of Elk Grove’s Development Services – Planning Division, which has determined the request qualifies for exemption under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3), the Common Sense Rule, as no environmental impact is anticipated from the license change. The application was submitted by Rawlings Consulting, with Joseph Daguman, Associate Planner at the City of Elk Grove, serving as the primary point of contact for the process. The exemption determination was formally issued on July 23, 2025, and the solicitation was posted publicly on August 12, 2025. There is no competitive bidding, procurement, or pricing component to this action; it is a ministerial permitting process governed solely by state beverage control regulations and CEQA exemption thresholds. The place of performance is the business location at 8607 Elk Grove Boulevard, Elk Grove, CA, and no federal contract clauses, evaluation factors, payment details, or technical specifications apply, as this falls outside the scope of federal procurement regulations and is strictly a local licensing and environmental exemption matter.
