Recommendation:
By Minute Motion, authorize staff to use the PM10 deposit from WL
Homes, LLC to stabilize the project site for Tract Map 34626 (The
Campus).
Discussion:
Tract Map 34626 (The Campus) is located within University Park between College Drive
and University Park Drive. At the time of grading permit issuance, WL Homes, LLC
submitted a PM10 deposit for dust mitigation in the amount of $42,000 for their 21 acre
project site. The site was stabilized with binder in 2006, but has not been maintained
since then. Recently there have been complaints about nuisance dust coming from this
site.
WL Homes, LLC is now in bankruptcy. Staff has been in contact with the receiver for
Bank of America regarding dust mitigation for this site. They have agreed to allow the
City to bring the site into compliance with AQMD and City codes. Staff would like to use
the PM10 deposit money to spray binder and to replace wind fencing. The estimated
cost of dust mitigation is $8,400, or $400 per acre. The balance of the PM10 deposit
will remain in account number 610-0000-228-3900 in the event additional maintenance
of the site becomes necessary.

The City is requesting that you stabilize the site, bringing it into compliance with City
and AQMD regulations. If the site is no# brought into compliance, the City wil! seek
Council approval at the August 27ih cauncil meeting, �o use the cash deposit submitted
by WL Homes, to stabilize the site.
If you have any questians regarding this issue, please contact Christina Canales at 760-
