Planning Commission - 9/4/2025 - Agenda Item - 25-510-01 Left Turn Winery Brewery Staff Presentation

The City of Oxnard Planning Commission reviewed a special use permit application for Left Turn Winery and Brewery to expand its alcohol sales to include beer and distilled spirits under ABC license types 23 and 04. The expansion involves utilizing a neighboring vacant suite for storage and distribution, as well as establishing a tap room and tasting area. The project site is located within an industrial center with no nearby residential areas, and the police department found no significant crime concerns related to the expansion. Conditions for approval include responsible beverage service training, restricted sales hours, installation of 24-hour video surveillance, and security personnel compliance. The project is categorically exempt from environmental review, and no public opposition was noted. Staff recommended approval of the permit with the stated conditions.
