WELCOME!

Airport Master Plan Public MeetingNovember 13, 2013

Where are We In the Process

What the Plan Will Include

Master Plan Topics

• Community Process• Facility / Policy Inventory• Aviation Demand Forecasts• Facility Requirements• Alternatives Analysis• Implementation Plan

Meeting Objectives

• Bring you up to date on plan progress.

• Obtain specific feedback / support for new annoyance mitigation initiatives.

• Capture some plan highlights.

1998 Master Plan

Current Master Plan Concept

Plan Comparison

Then: Airport-Driven(1998)

Now: Community Driven(2013)

• Maximum Growth • Annoyance Mitigation• More Runways • Multi-Use Hangar• All-Weather Access • Non-Aviation Uses• More T-Hangars • Technology Upgrades• Non-Aviation Uses • Box Hangars

Annoyance Mitigation

• New Runway– To avoid / reduce residential overflights

• Changes to the Primary Runway– To increase the height of airplane overflights

• Changes to the Secondary Runway– To better balance runway utilization

• Off-Airport Alternatives– To increase the range of options.

Alternatives Considered

Alternatives Dismissed

New Runway• $27.4M• Wetlands

~ WETLANDS ~

Alternatives Dismissed

1A: Extend Runway 11-29 East and Displace Landings

1B: Extend Runway 11-29 East / Shorten West

• $6.5M• Limited Benefit

Alternative 1B: Airspace Impacts

OPINION

• No significant change to height or noise

• Dismiss from consideration

Alternative 1: Runway 11-29

Alternatives Dismissed

• Widen Runway 2-20– $3.5M– Minimal change in

runway utilization

• Extend North– $5M to $15M– Significant Fill or– Pylon-bridge

construction

Alternatives Retained

Widen and extend Runway 2-20 South• $6.9M• Greater dispersion of runway utilization

Runway Selection Factors• Wind direction and velocity• Runway length • Pavement strength• Local communication efforts• Taxi distance• On course / arrival direction• Glider activity • Runway width

OPINION / RECOMMENDATION• Extending and widening will disperse operations more

effectively• Dispersion can be influenced by TTAD actions/policy• Views of Martis Valley not impacted significantly• Proceed with implementation planning

Alternatives Retained

OFF-AIRPORT MITIGATION• Annual Funding Allocation• Current models under consideration:– Expansion of Open Space Preservation Policy– Voluntary Home Improvement (Sound Insulation)– Voluntary Home Acquisition– Additional Possibilities– Flight Track Optimization– Requires Additional Community Outreach

OPINION/RECOMMENDATION• Increases Options Available to Residents and District• Proceed with Implementation Planning

ITEMS TO BE CLARIFIED• Funding Prioritization / Geographic Boundaries• Disposition of Acquired Property• Policy/Legal Implications
