HUSTON, CITY MANAGER TO: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT FROM: AIRPORT STATUS REPORT - JOHN WAYNE AIRPORT (JWA), SUBJECT: COALITION FOR A RESPONSIBLE AIRPORT SOLUTION (CRAS), AIRPORT SITE COALITION (ASC) AND HELICOPTER OVERFLIGHTS TASK FORCE (HOTF ) RECOMMENDATION Receive and file. DISCUSSION JWA On February 6th and 7th, staff attended the Fifth Annual Airport Noise Symposium with Kathy Weil. Attendees came from across the U.S., Canada and Korea. Presentations focused on past failures to protect airports from urban encroachment, FAA PART 150 studies to establish compatible use zones around airports and implement noise impact mitigation programs (such as sound insulation for homes within the 65 CNEL), the lack of available, realistic sites for new airports (including Orange County) and the military's commitment to maintain the integrity of their "master" jet bases (including MCAS E1 Toro). Overall, both staff and Kathy Weil thought the Symposium was a worthwhile experience. Staff will present a report on a noise monitoring system at the March 5th Council meeting. The County Airport Land Use Commission (ALUC) is expected to discuss/review a cumulative impact study of high rise development on navigational aids at their meeting on March 15, 1990. Staff will continue to monitor this issue. The City's press release for a citizen representative on airport issues was published in Tustin Today on February 9th. Staff intends to bring this item back to the Council at their March 5th meeting. CRAS - There is no new information to report at this time.
