Councilmember Brooks asked me to forward the following message to this group:

 Hello All:

 In an effort to provide accurate and current information regarding the  Leona Development and issues related to discharges to Chimes Creek, I  wanted to make you aware that De Silva Gates was issued a notice of  "Special Conditions Fine Imposition" on August 4, 2004.  The notice was  sent to De Silva Gates in response to the 11:15 AM discharge of the same date.  City staff determined that the discharge to the creek was  illicit, and as such imposed a fine of $5,000 pursuant to De Silva  Gates' Grading permit.

 We will keep you posted of any additional developments.

 Best regards,

 Desley
