HUSTON, CITY-MANAGER COMI~UNI'I"f DEVELOPMENT DEPARTIqENT AIRPORT STATUS REPORT: OOHN WAYNE AIRPORT (JWA), AIRPORT SITE COALITION (ASC), COALITION FoR, A RESPONSIBLE AIRPORT SOLUTION (CRAS) AND HELICOPTER OVERFLIGHTS TASK FORCE (HOTF) RECOI~IENDATION Receive and file. DISCUSSION JWA- The City received three (3) copies of the County's report on aircraft ar'-'Fival noise levels on February 22, 1989. A copy of the entire document has been sent to John Van Houten, the City's consultant for review and comments. We hope to provide Mr. Van Houten's comments to the City by March 20th. Staff presented the City's concerns regarding the Phase 2 Access Plan to the Airport Commission on February 15, 1989, The Commission received testimony {from only *two speakers, Wings West and the City), and gave general direction to County staff. The actual Phase 2 Access Plan is expected to return to the Airport Commission in mid-March and then go to the Board of Supervisors in mid-April. Staff will review the Phase 2 Plan and provide additional comment as necessary and appropriate. According to the FAA, the report on air traffic controls for JWA was reportedly published in the Federal Register on February 21, 1989. When staff visited the Orange County law library on February 23rd to copy the report, we were informed that copies of the Federal Register typically take one (1) week to arrive; therefore, they expect the 21st edition on February 28th. However, staff was able to obtain a draft of the report (by Fax) from the FAA, a copy is attached for the Council's information (Attachment I). The quality of the document is poor due to the FAX. A copy of this draft was also sent to Mr. Van Houten for his review and comments. The report states that all .comments must be received by the FAA on or before April 21, 1989. Upon completion of staff and the consultant's review, a proposed draft response will be transmitted to the City Council for their information and approval. ASC - Staff attended the meeting held on Saturday, February 25th. ~t that meeting, the caucus teams reviewed the criteria that will be used to evaluate - potential airport sites, and also assigned weights to each criteria based on its relation to other criteria. At the next meeting to be held on April 8, 1989, caucus teams will begin evaluating a total of 23 potential airport sites. f_ Clty Council Report Airport Status Report March 6, 1989 Page two CRAS - The City sent a letter to the Board of Directors of CRAS, formally nominating Councilman Kelly as a candidate for the Board elections to be held in March. At the Board of Directors meeting held on February 27, 1989, the Board discussed the Airport Site Coalition meeting of February 25, 1989 (see preceedtng section of this report). City of Irvine staff gave a presentation on a meeting held on February 8, 1989 on the proposed Southern California Regional Airport Authority (proposed by Senator Bergeson, et. al.). A slide show was presented illustrating why there should not be joint or full commercial use at MCAS E1 Toro (the slide show is available to be shown at City Council meetings, if Council is interested, staff can arrange for this). Councilman Kelly's election to the Board is expected at the annual meeting, which will be held on March 22, 1989. A copy of the announcement for the March 22nd meeting is attached (Attachment II). HOTF- Staff attended the meeting held on February 22nd. At that time, City of TF~Tne staff and representati yes of the Marl ne Corps gave presentations/evaluations of the alternate routes that had been proposed at the previous meeting. From a technical standpoint, it was determined that the "Reservior Route", could function as a supplement to the Irvine Boulevard route for daytime visual flight rule (VFR) approaches to MCAS Tustin. The Reservior Route would bring helicopters into the Browning Corridor north of Irvine Boulevard, thereby increasing the number of overflights of the northern Tustin Ranch area. Accordingly, staff voiced the City's objection to the Reservior Route. Colonel Wagner of the Marine Corps has acknowledged receipt of Mayor Kennedy's letter of January 6, 1989 in which she expressed similar opposition. In his letter, Colonel Wagner assured the City that the Marine Corps will discuss any proposed changes or additions to helicopter routes with the City, prior to entering into any commitment with the City of Irvine. Staff will continue to participate in the task force to represent the City's interests and keep the Council informed of all developments.

ATTACHMENT ·.. A Group Opposed to Joint or Commercial Use of MCA$-EI Toro 23704-5 El Toro Road, Suite 411, El Toro, California 92630 II E AIRPORT SOLUTION Survey Finds Residents I ?o COmmercial. Of M TO-R-O ......... .An overwhelming majority of resi- dents in south and central Orange County are opposed to use of Marine Corps Air Station El Toro as a commercial airport, according to - ,'ecent research study conducted Opinion Research of California and commissioned by the Coalition For A Responsible Airport Solution. Sixty percent of the residents surveyed said they would vote against joint military and commer- cial use if it were on the ballot l~day. Only 26 percent would favor Ihe idea and fourteen percent were undecided. In addition, the survey found that 59 percent disagreed with the statement that MCAS El Toro "can serve both military and commercial" operations. Only 29 percent agreed. Leading the list of reasons for opposing joint-use was concern about military and commercial flights operating together and its impact on national security. Thirty- seven percent of the respondents opposed to joint-use said that mill- tary and commercial operations should be kept separate. Sixteen percent expressed concerns about the impact of joint-use on the base's ability to protect national security interests, and 14 percent said they were concerned about safety issues. Twelve p_erce_nt said increased noise was of concern, while 11 percent said there already was too much air traffic congestion. For a copy of the complete survey results, please write to the Coalition For A Responsible Airport Solution at 23704-5 El Toro Road, Suite 411, El Toro, CA 92630. · Message From The Chairman Thank you for supporting 'the Coalition for a Responsible Airport Solution (CRAS). In just our first year of existence our membership I~as grown from a handful of com- munity leaders to include four ~ities, two chambers of commerce, ~arly 20 homeowners associa- ,,ons and more than 4,000 indi- ,~iduals--and we're continuing to expand. Your Board of Directors has been busy with a number'of activities to create awareness of CRAS' position that MCAS El Toro is not the solution to the air trans- portation needs of Orange County. Our efforts include drafting a posi- tion paper as well as commission- lng a survey of Orange County residents and pubticizing both with the media. In addition, we have been contacting government offi- cials, associations and individuals for their support. On behalf of the Board of Directors, we look for- ward to meeting you and your neighbors at the annual meeting on March 22. Sally Anne Sheridan COALITION FOR A RESPONSIBLE AIRP · I.C Residents Can Participate In Airport Site Selection Process As the airport issue gains more public awareness, you may be wondering how you can be a part- of the process of selecting an ad- ditional airport site to service the region. If so, we encourage you to participate in organized discus- sions on the issue, sponsored by the Airport Site Coalition (ASC). The ASC, comprised of Orange County residents, businesses, as- sociations and public officials, is conducting a 20-month study to find an additional airport site to serve Orange County's growing air transportation needs. The study, called the Airport Site Consensus Program, is funded by the Federal Aviation Administration and public and private sectors. Following the study, which began in May 1988, the ASC will make a site recom- mendation to the Orange County Board of Supervisors. If you wou!d like to play a vital role in this consensus process and voice your opposition to MCAS El Toro as a potential site, we encourage you to attend the Airport Site consensus Program meetings. Meetings are held one Saturday morning per month at the Flour Daniel Corporation building in Irvine. For further information on upcoming meetings, please contact Eve Somjen at 660-3647. CRAS Responds To Closing Of 86 Military Bases On January 5, 1989, the Depart- men, of Defense announced that it -' ',uld support the recommenda- , · ~s of a bipartisan commission to close 86 U.S. military bases across the country. The following is an excerpt of a statement released to the media by chairman of the Coalition' For A Responsible Airport Solution, Irvine City Councilmem- ber Sally Anne Sheridan. "... It is highly significant that of the bases to be closed, MCAS El Toro was not among them. This clearly contradiCts statements by some individuals who have sought to downplay the importance of MCAS El Toro as a way to justify permitting joint commercial and military use of base facilities. The fact that MCAS El Toro was not recommended for closure... strongly supports our longstanding position that MCAS El Toro plays an extremely vital role in our pres- ent and future national defense and that the base is completely in- ,, appropriate for joint use ... Coalition Schedules Annual Meeting -The annual meeting of the general membership of CRAS has been scheduled for Wednesday, March 22 at Clubhouse 3 in Leisure World. The meeting will include presenta- tions by prominent and informed speakers. A business session to elect the 1989 Board of Directors will be held at 6:00 p.m., to be followed with the speakers program at 7:00 p.m. We look forward to eeing you and all interested per- .OhS there. For more information on the meeting, contact Terri Mehrguth at 755-0400. FUNDRAISING + + The Coalition For A Responsible Airport Solution is a non;-profit organization and, therefore, relies on the financial support of those individuals, businesses and cities that also agree that MCAS El Toro is not an appropriate site for another commercial airport in Or.ange County. We need your support now to help protect the community we live in from being destroyed by the presence of a commercial airport. Contributions will be used for a direct mail campaign, production of a newsletter to keep members informed and to help fight any attempts to open the way for commercial flights at MCAS El Toro.
