Precise Development Plan No. 2025-01, Director Approval Request No. 2025-06, and Director Approval Request No. 2025-07

The City of Norwalk, California, is reviewing a development proposal to demolish an existing 2,721 square foot drive-through McDonald’s at 12959 Rosecrans Avenue and construct a new 2,123 square foot dual-order point drive-through restaurant on the same 0.51-acre lot, identified by APN 8046-002-032. The project includes the installation of an off-street parking lot, ornamental landscaping, and associated site infrastructure to support the new facility, maintaining the same commercial use and operational capacity as the prior structure. The proposal is being processed under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as a Class 2 Categorical Exemption under Section 15302(b), which permits the replacement of an existing commercial building with a new structure of similar size and function without requiring a full environmental impact report, provided no significant environmental impacts are anticipated. Supporting documentation such as a Notice of Exemption, a CDFW No Effect Determination, and proof of payment for a $75 county documentary handling fee are required for submission. The applicant, McDonald’s USA, LLC, is represented by Scott Wilkeson and carried out by Zeshaan Younus, Curt Pringle & Associates, with the City of Norwalk serving as the lead agency for approval and oversight. The project was filed under Precise Development Plan No. 2025-01 and associated Director Approval Requests No. 2025-06 and No. 2025-07, with the formal submission deadline occurring on July 24, 2025, and the document posted publicly on July 25, 2025. Contact for inquiries is through Kristy Wong, Associate Planner, and Nancy Lee, Development Services Manager, at the City of Norwalk. The submission is processed through a municipal development review system, and while environmental compliance requirements are clearly defined, there is no evidence of federal procurement structures, contract clauses under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, line-item pricing, invoicing systems, performance metrics, or formal award criteria. The project is not subject to federal contracting mechanisms, and there are no representations regarding small business status, federal certifications, or socioeconomic designations. All administrative and compliance procedures are governed by local and state regulations, with the primary obligations centered on environmental exemption documentation and fee payment rather than contractual deliverables or performance benchmarks.
