801 Embarcadero 0.17 Acres of Commercial Land for Lease in Morro Bay, CA 93442

The City of Morro Bay invites the submittal of proposals from qualified individuals and entities (Proposer) to redevelop public land and water located on the Embarcadero for Lease Site 86/86W, located at 801 Embarcadero, Morro Bay, CA 93442 (Property). The City of Morro Bay intends to select a Proposer to redevelop the Property. The Property will be available on a long-term ground lease basis after Concept Plans for site redevelopment are approved. The existing lease on site 86/86W expired on July 31, 2025. A recent redevelopment plan submitted by the previous leaseholder received Coastal Development approval from the California Coastal Commission and Conditional Use Permit approval from the City. A new proposal of similar design and scope as the previous redevelopment plan will likely benefit from a streamlined permitting process through initiation of existing entitlements or request for minor amendment process. The City is in the process of proactively requesting an extension for the Coastal Development Permit which is currently set to expire in June 2026. Instructions and forms to be used in preparing a proposal are found in the information included in the RFP document. The activity schedule for the RFP is included. For more information and a copy of the City of Morro Bay Harbor Department Lease Management Policy, as well as a copy of the City’s standard lease format, visit the Harbor Department’s page of the City website under “Harbor Administration and Leases.” If you cannot agree to the requirements exactly as set forth in the RFP, then please do not submit a proposal.

Specific questions relevant to the RFP must be submitted as- directed in the “Invitation to Participate” section of the RFP.
