Brief

The Los Angeles City Planning Commission approved a Vesting Tentative Tract Map (VTT-84453-2A) to subdivide a 12501–12665 West Ventura Boulevard property. Environmental clearance (ENV-2025-5698-SE) was issued. The matter was referred to the Planning and Land Use Management Committee in early August 2026. The committee extended its review deadline to October 12 and scheduled the item for a committee hearing on October 13, 2026. The file remains pending.

Full summary

The Los Angeles City Planning Commission has approved a Vesting Tentative Tract Map for a property located at 12501–12665 West Ventura Boulevard, allowing for subdivision of the land. The project also received environmental clearance under CEQA (ENV-2025-5698-SE). This approval was referred to the City Council's Planning and Land Use Management Committee on August 6, 2026, where it is now under review. The project involves multiple related entitlements and approvals, including what appears to be a development agreement, a conditional use permit, and related variances or exceptions based on the reference case numbers. The exact scope and scale of the proposed subdivision is not detailed in the legislative file itself, though the tract map designation indicates a subdivision of residential or commercial land. The Planning and Land Use Management Committee initially set an August 22, 2026 deadline for its review. On August 11, the committee chair extended that deadline to October 12, 2026, indicating a need for additional time to evaluate the proposal. As of September 18, 2026, the item was scheduled for a committee hearing on October 13, 2026. At that hearing, the committee will likely hear testimony, review the Planning Commission's findings, and decide whether to approve, deny, or modify the tract map and environmental clearance. The matter will then proceed to the full City Council for final action, or may be returned for additional consideration. The file does not expire until September 18, 2028.
