Santa Monica College will hold a meeting next week to present its Bundy Campus project and solicit public comments on potential environmental impacts that might occur as a result.

The meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m. Monday, Oct. 17 in the SMC Bundy Campus community room, 3171 S. Bundy Dr., Los Angeles. Parking is free.

An environmental impact report is required for the Bundy Campus Master Plan, which the college is currently in the process of developing.

The satellite campus at Santa Monica Airport is a 10.4-acre site that the college purchased from BAE Systems in December 2001 for $30 million. A number of site improvements — including the removal of a 100,000-square-foot building, a new sound wall and landscaping — were completed in 2004 following a series of meetings with nearby neighbors in an effort to develop consensus. A 64,000-square-foot building was renovated and was opened in July. The new, stand-alone campus houses SMC’s nursing and teacher training programs, and community and continuing education. Several general education courses also are being offered at the site.

SMC spent more than $1 million to improve the airport campus aesthetically and to shield adjacent residents from noise. It has put utilities underground, built a sound wall with landscaping on the south and west sides of the property, demolished a 100,000-square-foot manufacturing building, and added a new driveway from Bundy Drive. The college also has closed to traffic the rear entrance to the campus, on Stewart Avenue, which goes through a residential area.

The college has held meetings with college departments, community members and neighbors over the past year, seeking input and listening to concerns. The proposed master plan is a result of that input.
