Sun Community Credit Union (Design Review 25-0001)

The project involves the construction of a 2,895 square foot commercial banking facility for Sun Community Credit Union in Cathedral City, California, which qualifies for a Class 3 categorical exemption under Section 15303 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines due to its size and location within an urbanized area. This exemption allows the project to proceed without a full environmental impact report, as it meets the criteria for small-scale new construction of commercial structures not exceeding 10,000 square feet. The project has been approved by the City of Cathedral City, with a certified exemption finding and a Notice of Exemption filed as of July 7, 2025. The lead agency contact is Associate Planner Dominique Camps, and the project proponent is Jason Patty of Level 5, LLC, who acts as the architect and applicant. No formal contract value, pricing terms, or financial clauses are identified in the documentation. There is no indication of a solicitation number beyond DR 25-0001, and no federal acquisition regulation (FAR) clauses, contract types, payment offices, or standardized procurement elements such as inspection criteria, delivery schedules, or evaluation factors are present. The place of performance is clearly defined as Cathedral City, California, and submissions were required to be mailed to the Office of Planning and Research in Sacramento. The project relies solely on state-level environmental compliance procedures, with no federal contracting mechanisms, socioeconomic certifications, unique entity identifiers, or contract administration roles such as contracting officer or contracting officer’s representative identified. All requirements pertain to local administrative and environmental review processes rather than formal procurement or construction contracting terms.
