Verizon Wireless Communication Facility – Crescent Center SC Project #251976

The City of South Lake Tahoe is proceeding with the construction and installation of a stealth wireless communication facility on the façade and rooftop of a building located at 1021 Heavenly Village Way, South Lake Tahoe, California, under Project #251976. This project, sponsored by Verizon and executed by Epic Wireless through Melissa Ofina, is categorized as a small-scale facility conversion under CEQA Class 3, Section 15303, qualifying for a categorical environmental exemption due to its minimal impact on the surrounding environment. The scope includes integrating the communication equipment seamlessly into the existing building structure to support wireless telecommunications services without visual disruption. The project was posted as a forecast on September 10, 2025, and signed on the same date by John Hitchcock, the City’s Planning Manager, who serves as the primary point of contact for the effort. The place of performance is clearly defined as South Lake Tahoe, CA, with a zip code of 96150, and no other delivery or performance locations are indicated. Although the project is formally identified as a forecast and not a procurement contract, it is being administered under the jurisdiction of the City of South Lake Tahoe Development Services Department, with no formal contract type such as FFP or IDIQ specified. There is no defined period of performance, contractual value, pricing structure, or invoicing instructions provided, and no standard FAR clauses, special contract requirements, evaluation factors, or representations have been included in the documentation. The agency code 26a035ab is referenced, but no corresponding accounting or appropriation data such as TAS or ACRN lines are present. Payment details, inspection criteria, quality standards, and technical specifications for compliance with FCC, NFPA, or other telecom or construction codes are not outlined. No COR, COTR, or PCO roles are formally assigned, and while a remittance address in Sacramento is shown, it is not confirmed as the official payment office. The submission process lacks clear instructions for proposal format, deadlines, or required certifications, and no unique entity ID or socioeconomic status information for the contractor is provided. The absence of standard contract components indicates this is primarily an environmental approval and notification initiative rather than a fully executed procurement contract.
