Piedmont Partners LLC

Piedmont Partners LLC is seeking to operate a storefront retail facility for commercial cannabis sales at 18013 Ventura St., Encino, CA, within an existing building that requires only minimal modifications and no change in land use. The site, approximately 120 feet deep and 48 feet wide along Ventura Blvd., will utilize existing utilities provided by the City of Los Angeles Department of Water and Power. The project has been determined eligible for a Class 1 Categorical Exemption under the California Environmental Quality Act, as it involves no physical expansion or significant environmental impact. The applicant is licensed under the California Business and Professions Code, Division 10, and must maintain ongoing compliance with state and local cannabis regulations. The Department of Cannabis Control is the overseeing agency, with Tia Heu, Environmental Scientist, listed as the primary point of contact for regulatory inquiries. There is no formal contract value, pricing structure, or line-item schedule provided, as this is a forecasted licensing action rather than a traditional procurement. No federal acquisition regulations, such as FAR clauses, payment details, accounting codes, invoicing systems, or contract administration roles like COR or PCO, apply to this matter. The documentation lacks standard procurement elements including evaluation factors, award criteria, delivery schedules, FOB terms, representations of small business status, UEI or CAGE codes, or special contract requirements. The submission process and deadline are not specified, and while the license application was submitted on September 17, 2024, and posted on October 9, 2025, there is no defined period of performance or formal acceptance protocol. All regulatory and environmental compliance is governed by state codes, with no federal contractual obligations or technical specifications involved.
