2006 FAA Letter
Admonished the City of Houston for allowing incompatible development to encroach into areas affected by airport operations
Asked the City to adopt measures that ensure compatible land development and would protect the FAA’s investment of grant funds in the three airports
FEDERAL ASSISTANCE FOR FUTURE AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT AND BUY-OUTS MAY BE LIMITED WITHOUT CONTROLS AND MAY EVEN REQUIRE CITY TO REPAY PAST GRANT FUNDING

Proposed Action
Modernize Existing Ordinances For Intercontinental & Hobby
Follow Both FAA Rules AND Federal Requirements for Aircraft Operators
Create Regulations for Ellington
Protect Airspace for FAA Approved Master Planned Runways for All Three Airports
Work Closely with Stakeholders to Develop a Regulation that Does Not Over-Regulate

Airspace Surfaces – Three Kinds
Protect aircraft approaches and departures and aircraft movement areas from the ground up (Part 77.25 Imaginary Surfaces)
Protect aircraft operating during low visibility conditions using their onboard instruments as pilots monitor signals emanating from equipment, or NAVAIDS, located in the air (onboard the aircraft or satellites) or on the ground (Part 77.23 Terminal Instrument Procedures (TERPS))
Flight paths for emergency procedures (One Engine Inoperative (One Engine Out))

Structure of Ordinance
Hazard Area Regulations Would be Part of Same City Ordinance Article as Land Use Regulations—Code of Ordinances of the City of Houston, Chapter 9 for Ease of Locating Regulations Pertinent to Airports
Regulations Would Govern Only the Height of New Construction or Modifications of Existing Structures Whose Proposed Structural Heights Would Penetrate the Airspace Surfaces
Maps will identify permissible heights as part of the regulations.
