The City of Sunnyvale has only one redevelopment project, the 184-acre Central Core Revelopment Project Area. The goal of the project is to rebuild Downtown Sunnyvale as a traditional downtown, a vibrant pedestrian-friendly central place for shopping, working, living and entertainment. The current focus is on the large block bounded by Mathilda, Washington, Sunnyvale and Iowa Avenues, commonly known as the Town Center Mall.

Town Center Redevelopment Project Soil

Vapor Removal Ready to Begin

 

The two soil vapor extraction systems, designed to remove the soil vapor contamination under the parking lot and parking structure in the eastern portion of the Town Center redevelopment project, will begin operation within the next two weeks. Extensive sound insulation has been designed into the construction to minimize noise. For the next several months, the extraction equipment will most likely operate 24-hours a day to remove as much vapor as possible. Both systems have been approved by the Regional Water Quality Control Board and have received permits from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District. Noise will be monitored and regulated to ensure compliance with the City’s noise control rules.
