Agree to take no further action to explore the formation of an Airport Commission or Airport Authority until after the workshop noted above. BACKGROUND: On July 21, 1987, the Board of Supervisors returned to our Committee a report recommending a reappointment to the Airport Land Use Commission because of the Board' s interest in determining whether or not a member of the Board of Supervisors should be appointed to the Commission. S On August 10, 1987, our Committee met with the Chairman of the Airport Land Use Commission and the Aviation Advisory Committee, the Airport Manager, the County Counsel, and staff to the Airport Land Use Commission from the Community Development Department. In our discussions it became clear that there is a need for increased coordination between the ALUC and AAC as well as between County staff and the ALUC. It was noted that the Community Development Department is processing development applications which the ALUC believes have an impact on Buchanan Field Airport, but have been processed without advising the Commission even though the Commission is staffed by the Community Development Department. Page 3 BACKGROUND (continued) It was also noted that the suggestion that the Board look into the creation of an Airport Commission or Airport Authority is far more complex than it might appear on the surface, and that there may be questionable value in establishing such a Commission or Authority. It is clear to our Committee that the Board of Supervisors as a whole has not had the opportunity to stay in close touch with the ALUC and AAC and that a workshop between the Board, the ALUC and the AAC would be advisable before any further actions are taken either on an appointment to the ALUC or on the advisability of creating an Airport Commission or Airport Authority. we have, therefore, recommended the establishment of such a workshop and have outlined a number of matters we believe should be presented at that workshop. Because of the need to involve the County Planning Commission and insure that the County Planning Commission is aware of concerns expressed by the ALUC, we have suggested including the Chairperson of the Commission and the District 4 appointee to the Commission in this workshop. In the meantime, we believe the Board should not act on appointing anyone to the Airport Land Use Commission since the incumbent can continue to serve until reappointed or replaced. cc: County Administrator Community Development Director Public Works Director Airoort Manager County Counsel Chair, ALUC Chair, AAC Linda Best, Chair, County Planning Commission Louise Aiello, District 4 Appointee County Planning Commission General Services Director
