Sunset Area Plan/ Placer Ranch Specific Plan Project

The project involves the construction of a 27,500-square-foot Innovation Center in Rocklin, California, featuring two floors with office spaces, environmental and soap laboratories, test tunnels, and an observation deck. The effort is part of the Sunset Area Plan and Placer Ranch Specific Plan, overseen by Placer County’s Community Development Resource Agency (CDRA), with the lead agency responsible for environmental compliance under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The site is designated as the place of performance, and key project milestones include design review approvals, preparation of Mitigated Negative Declarations, and certification of environmental documentation. Financial transactions related to the project involve state-mandated fees for Fish and Wildlife compliance, with internal accounting tracked through county ledger accounts and cost centers, though no formal contract pricing structure or line-item breakdown is present. The work is subject to county administrative codes and state regulatory requirements, particularly SB 1535, and no federal procurement clauses, standard contract forms, or FAR sections apply, as this is a local government initiative handled under state environmental and planning law. Point of contact for the project includes Meghan Schwartz, Senior CDRA Technician, and Vance Shannon, Project Manager, with submissions and approvals coordinated through the Placer County Clerk’s office in Auburn. While a solicitation number PLN25-00109 is referenced, the documentation lacks formal contract type, period of performance, evaluation criteria, or award methodology, and there is no identified contract value, payment office details, or federal certification requirements, indicating this is an administrative approval and development oversight process rather than a traditional federal procurement contract.
