The Carey School Early Childhood Education Center

The Carey School Early Childhood Education Center is a 5,908-square-foot, single-story facility being constructed at 2033 La Salle Drive in San Mateo, California, to serve up to 75 students and 16 staff. The project requires a Zoning Map Amendment, changing the land designation from R1-B to R1-B/Q8 Overlay, and an amendment to Section 27.60.180 of the San Mateo Municipal Code to establish specific development standards for educational facilities on the site. Construction is permitted under a Special Use Permit and has been granted a CEQA Class 3 categorical exemption for small structures, with no physical ground disturbance authorized by the zoning changes, qualifying it for a Common Sense Exemption under CEQA guidelines. The City of San Mateo acts as the lead agency, overseeing regulatory compliance, environmental documentation, and permitting, while The Carey School is the proponent responsible for executing the project. Administrative filings include a Notice of Exemption, a certified exemption finding, and a No Effect Determination from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, supported by payment receipts totaling $4,277.50 for environmental review and documentary fees. The project is listed as a forecast in the public records, indicating it is in the planning or pre-solicitation phase with no formal solicitation or contract number assigned. There is no publicly available contract value estimate, line-item pricing, procurement type, or defined period of performance. No federal acquisition regulation clauses, contracting officer representatives, electronic invoicing systems, accounting codes, or federal socioeconomic certifications are referenced, as the project operates entirely under state and local municipal processes, with no formal federal contract procurement structure in place. All administrative submissions are paper-based and require physical filing with the City of San Mateo and state agencies, with no digital portal or electronic submission options available.
