The Los Angeles City Council denied the CEQA appeal filed by the West Valley Alliance for an Optimal Living, sustaining the South Valley Area Planning Commission's determination to approve a Categorical Exemption for the project. This project involves the demolition of an existing 6,739-square-foot commercial building and the construction of a new 3,426-square-foot drive-through In-N-Out Burger restaurant with 31 parking spaces and a queuing lane for 23 cars. The restaurant will operate from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m. Sunday through Thursday and until 1:30 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays.
This project contributes to commercial development and economic activity along Ventura Boulevard while adhering to environmental clearance standards under CEQA.
