USE-2025-00018 AND USE-2025-00019 - Webb’s Grainworks Outdoor Patio

The City of Aliso Viejo has authorized project USE-2025-00018 and USE-2025-00019 to permit Webb’s Grainworks to establish an outdoor dining area by converting a portion of its parking lot, while simultaneously expanding its ABC liquor license to cover the new patio space and reducing the required parking spaces by 17 percent. The project qualifies for a categorical exemption under California’s Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Section 15303 as a minor alteration to an existing structure with minimal environmental impact, eliminating the need for extensive environmental review. All work is to be completed at the designated site, 7 Journey, Aliso Viejo, CA 92656, with oversight handled by the City’s Planning Department and led by Senior Planner Rose Rivera. No formal federal contract clauses, pricing data, evaluation criteria, or invoicing details are included, as this is a local land use and environmental permitting action rather than a federal procurement. The applicant, Jeremy Webb, has submitted required documentation including a Certificate of Determination to support the exemption claim, and no federal business certifications, socioeconomic designations, or contracting officer roles have been formally designated. The submission process is paper-based with no specified deadline or electronic portal, and all approvals are contingent upon compliance with state environmental regulations and local zoning conditions.
