Planet Fitness Major Use Permit (PLN25-0098)

The Planet Fitness facility located at 42 Springtowne Center in Vallejo, California, is seeking approval to extend its operating hours from 6 a.m. to 12 a.m. to 24 hours a day, seven days a week, under Major Use Permit PLN25-0098. The existing 18,093-square-foot facility will not undergo any physical modifications or expansions; the change is purely operational, requiring the addition of two employees during overnight hours to ensure safe and continuous service. The request is supported by a categorical exemption under CEQA Section 15301(a), which permits such changes at existing facilities without triggering full environmental review, provided no new construction or significant environmental impacts are anticipated. The applicant, Vallejo East Fitness, LLC dba Planet Fitness, has filed a Notice of Exemption and submitted documentation including a CDFW No Effect Determination and proof of payment for a $50 environmental exemption filing fee. No federal contract clauses, procurement mechanisms, or acquisition regulations apply, as this is a local land use permit governed by California environmental and zoning laws. The City of Vallejo’s Planning and Development Services Department is the lead agency, with Cesar Orozco as the primary contact. Operations are scheduled to commence under the new hours as of October 30, 2025, with no formal contract period defined, no federal funding involved, and no payment or invoicing systems such as WAWF or IPP applicable. The process relies on administrative compliance with CEQA, local permitting procedures, and voluntary adherence to operational standards, not on a competitive procurement or federal contracting framework.
