Turf Care Maintenance Facility

The project involves the replacement of the existing turf care facility at El Niguel Country Club in Laguna Niguel, California, within the current 1.5-acre footprint without any expansion. The City of Laguna Niguel approved Site Development Permit Amendment SP96-37A01 under categorical exemptions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), specifically Sections 15302(b) for replacement of existing facilities and 15304 for minor land alterations, concluding that the project would not result in significant environmental impacts. The permit was upheld following an appeal denial by the City Council through Resolution No. 2025-1518. The scope includes demolition and reconstruction of a 3,500-square-foot operations building, a 3,500-square-foot storage building, an 800-square-foot covered storage area, and a pump station to support ongoing golf course and grounds maintenance. No new contract value, pricing structure, or formal procurement terms are established, as this is a regulatory permitting action rather than a competitive solicitation. The project proponent, El Niguel Country Club, is responsible for execution, while the City of Laguna Niguel’s Community Development Department provides oversight and approval. The primary point of contact for the city is Daniel Kesicbasian, Associate Planner, and Kimberly Wood, Club Manager, serves as the club’s representative. Financial transactions related to fees are handled locally, with payment records indicating processing through the Orange County Clerk-Recorder’s office, and no federal accounting codes, payment offices, or invoicing systems are involved. The documentation required for compliance includes a Notice of Exemption and supporting technical memorandums dated September 26 and 28, 2025, submitted in hard copy to the Orange County Clerk-Recorder and state agencies, with no electronic submission or digital file formats specified. No federal FAR clauses, contract types, evaluation factors, performance specifications, or contractor certifications are applicable, as the process is governed entirely by state environmental regulations and local land use authority.
