MEMORANDUM
To: Mayor and City Councilmembers
From: Mark Houdashelt, AQAB Vice-Chair
CC: Air Quality Advisory Board
Date: March 23, 2016
Re: Recommendations Regarding the Dust Prevention and Control Manual
At our meeting on March 21, 2016, the Air Quality Advisory Board reviewed the hybrid
approach currently being proposed by City Staff for implementation of the Dust Prevention and
Control Manual. I presided over this meeting in the absence of AQAB Chair John Shenot. At
this meeting the AQAB unanimously adopted the following recommendation:
The Air Quality Advisory Board continues to recommend adoption of the Dust Prevention
and Control Manual for all projects within the community. However, if Council chooses to
adopt a hybrid approach as proposed by City staff, then the Board recommends prompt
adoption of such approach and encourages staff to initiate soft enforcement as quickly as
possible to ensure that contractors and the general public are made aware of these
standards during the 2016 construction season.
