Taste of the Caribbean/ ENV-2024-7912-CE/ ZA-2024-7911-CUB

The Taste of the Caribbean project, identified by project numbers ENV-2024-7912-CE and ZA-2024-7911-CUB, is a land-use entitlement application submitted to the City of Los Angeles Department of City Planning. The project seeks a Conditional Use Permit to allow the sale and dispensing of a full line of alcoholic beverages for on-site consumption at a restaurant located at 5920 West Santa Monica Boulevard, Los Angeles, California 90038. The facility features a 1,794 square-foot interior dining area with a total capacity of 57 seats and proposes daily hours of operation from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m. Administratively, the project is governed by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has been granted a Class 1 categorical exemption under Section 15301, as the project involves minor alterations to an existing structure with negligible expansion of use. The application is associated with applicant Bernard James and representative Kevin Franklin, with David Woon serving as the City Planning Associate. This is a regulatory permitting process rather than a procurement contract, and as such, it does not contain federal acquisition clauses, pricing structures, or competitive award factors.
