Planning Commission Meeting: July 1, 2026

The City of Cerritos Planning Commission held a meeting on July 1, 2026, focusing primarily on two major redevelopment projects. The commission reviewed and recommended approval of Precise Plan 2026-6, which involves the redevelopment of the former Sears site at Los Cerritos Center into a new two-story Dick's House of Sport retail and sports experience store. The project includes extensive architectural and landscaping improvements, an outdoor athletic field, and is planned to open by spring 2028. The commission also considered Precise Plan Amendment 1969-5-2026 for exterior remodeling and site improvements at the Carmenita Plaza North Shopping Center, including enhanced landscaping, parking lot repaving, and new signage. Both projects were recommended for approval to the City Council following public hearings and discussions addressing environmental impacts, parking, signage, and community benefits. No direct contract awards or procurement actions were taken, but these approvals set the stage for future construction and vendor engagements related to these developments.
