The National City Planning Commission meeting on July 21, 2025, concluded with a unanimous vote on a significant project concerning La Macqueria Bridal by Dulce. The commission determined that the project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Class 1 guidelines, which pertain to existing facilities.
The main focus of the meeting was the approval of a coastal development permit and a conditional use permit for the establishment to sell beer and wine, classified as ABC type 41, and to host live entertainment. This decision marks a notable step for the restaurant, allowing it to enhance its offerings and potentially attract more patrons.
Following the vote, the commission expressed gratitude for the discussion and moved on to other agenda items, indicating a smooth and efficient meeting process. The approval of this permit is expected to contribute positively to the local dining scene and community engagement in National City.
