February 1, 2019 Support for 2525 N. Main Street Multi -Family Residential Project (aka Magnolia at the Park) SCH 2018021031, DP No. 2017-34 page 2 family residential units located at 2525 North (N.) Main Street, in the northern portion of the City of Santa Ana approximately 500 feet east of Interstate 5 (1-5) ("Project'). LIUNA submitted extensive comments on the Project. We are pleased that the Project proponent has taken our concerns seriously and has agreed to take the following actions to address our concerns: A. All construction equipment shall be outfitted with Best Available Control Technology (BACT) devices certified by the Air Resources Board (ARB). Any emissions control device used by the contractor shall achieve emissions reductions that are no less than what could be achieved by a Level 3 diesel emissions control strategy for a similarly sized engine as defined by ARB regulations. B. All wood materials for cabinets, doors and flooring shall be made either of solid wood, or if composite wood materials are used (e.g. plywood, medium density fiberboard, particleboard), such composite wood materials for all interior finish systems shall be made with CARB approved no -added formaldehyde (NAF) resins or ultralow emitting formaldehyde (ULEF) resins (GARB, 2009), unless such materials are not readily available in the local market, in which case Applicant may use CARB Phase 2 certified products. With these measures, LIUNA enthusiastically supports the Project, and withdraws its appeal of the CEQA documents. LIUNA believes that the Project will provide much-needed housing for the community, will provide high-quality jobs, and will mitigate environmental impacts to the full extent feasible. LIUNA urges the City Council to APPROVE the Magnolia Project. Thank you for considering our comments. Sincerely, Richard Drury
