The project at 3498 East 7th Street in Long Beach, California, involves the conversion of an existing 1,210 square foot commercial building into a fully enclosed adult and medical-use cannabis dispensary under the CCP zoning designation. No expansion of the building footprint is planned, and all modifications are confined to interior alterations, including the construction of a secure cannabis storage vault, installation of interior walls, and addition of exterior doors and windows, with material handling restricted to rear driveway access. The project relies on existing utilities and is governed by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) through a Class 1 categorical exemption under Section 15301, which confirms no significant environmental impact due to the nature of the work and reuse of an existing structure. Regulatory compliance is enforced through the Long Beach Municipal Code Title 5, which governs cannabis business operations, and requires successful acquisition of building, health, and business operation permits before activation. The project is administered by the City of Long Beach Community Development Department, with Amy Harbin serving as the primary contact for permitting and environmental compliance. There is no formal solicitation, contract value, or federal procurement framework in place; the process is ministerial and based on regulatory approval rather than competitive bidding, with no federal acquisition regulation (FAR) clauses, accounting data, invoicing systems, or contract administration roles such as COR or PCO applicable. The applicant, Bryant Ezeji operating as Long Beach 26, LLC, is responsible for ensuring all work complies with local building, fire, and health codes, and must coordinate with municipal infrastructure departments for any private improvements related to utilities. The site’s land use is strictly limited to cannabis commercial activities under the CCP zoning category, and no other uses are permitted without rezoning. There are no formal deliverables outlined beyond successful permitting, and the project’s completion is contingent upon final approval of all city-issued permits and no adverse environmental conditions being triggered during review.
