Use Permit to Establish Youth Center & Request for Reduction in Parking

The project involves converting an existing single-family residence in Benicia, California into a youth center through interior modifications and minor site improvements, with full compliance to the Americans with Disabilities Act ensuring accessibility throughout the facility. A key component of the request is a reduction in required on-site parking from ten spaces to five, with one of those five designated as ADA-compliant to meet accessibility standards. The project qualifies for a categorical exemption under CEQA Section 15303, which permits minor alterations to existing structures without the need for extensive environmental review, and is authorized under relevant provisions of the Public Resources Code. The City of Benicia acts as the lead agency overseeing the permitting process, with the Kyle Hyland Foundation identified as the entity responsible for execution of the work. All activities are centered at 1155 West 10th Street, Benicia, CA 94510, which serves as both the place of performance and the location for inspection and acceptance. The solicitation, numbered PLN-25-10, was posted on August 25, 2025, with proposals due by September 15, 2025, and the permit was signed on August 20, 2025. Hugo McMillan, Assistant Planner for the City of Benicia, serves as the primary point of contact for inquiries. This authorization is a land use permit under local jurisdiction and does not include federal contracting elements such as FAR clauses, procurement evaluation factors, federal accounting codes, or standard contractual representations, as it falls outside the scope of federal acquisition regulations and is governed entirely by local environmental and zoning requirements.
