Site Plan Review 24-60000297

Site Plan Review 24-60000297 is a forecast project for the City of Bakersfield involving a 5,497 square-foot change of use for a property located at 731 E 21st St, Bakersfield, CA 93305. The project is situated within the M-1 Light Manufacturing zone and is classified as a minor alteration of an existing structure. Due to its nature, the project is categorized as exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act CEQA Section 15301, meaning the review process is ministerial and based on administrative compliance with zoning and land use regulations rather than a competitive procurement process. The project is managed by Assistant Planner Yazid Alawgarey of the City of Bakersfield Development Services Department, with Pedro M Zhao serving as the Project Manager. The official notice of exemption was signed and issued on July 24, 2025. Because this is an administrative site plan review for a minor alteration, there are no specified contract values, federal acquisition regulation clauses, or competitive evaluation factors associated with the project. The primary deliverable is the formal approval of the site plan and the corresponding CEQA categorical exemption finding.
