Cerritos Planning Commission weighed Dick's House of Sport proposal; multiple commission meetings canceled through December
The Cerritos Planning Commission was scheduled to hold public hearings on a proposed 142,000-square-foot Dick's House of Sport retail and sports experience store at Los Cerritos Mall, according to a July 1 agenda. Minutes from that meeting have not yet been published, so outcomes are not yet available.
Planning Commission — July 1
The agenda listed two public hearings:
- **Precise Plan 2026-6:** A recommendation to approve a Dick's House of Sport store at 100 Los Cerritos Mall. The project covers 142,000 square feet on 4.65 acres. The agenda states the project is categorically exempt from CEQA review under Section 15332.
- **Precise Plan 1969-5(2026) Amendment:** A proposal to remodel the exterior of Carmenita Plaza North Shopping Center at 13321–13349 Artesia Boulevard and 17303 Carmenita Road. This project is claimed exempt from CEQA under Section 15301.
The commission was also set to consider approving minutes from its June 3, 2026 meeting on the consent calendar. Because only the agenda is available and minutes have not been published, no vote tallies or final decisions can be reported.
Property Preservation Commission — June 30
A separate Property Preservation Commission meeting was scheduled with two nuisance cases on the agenda:
- **PPC 2026-22 at 19204 Almadin Avenue:** The commission was to determine whether the property constitutes a nuisance for lack of landscape maintenance and dead vegetation. The agenda proposed a 21-day abatement period.
- **PPC 2026-23 at 13240 Destino Place:** The commission was to review overgrown vegetation and lack of landscape maintenance. The agenda proposed a 7-day abatement period.
The consent calendar included approval of minutes from the May 26, 2026 regular meeting. Minutes from this June 30 meeting have not yet been published, so no outcomes are available.
