Contact:Bob Drake (335-1214) Orig: Community Development Department ATTESTED CC: Manager of Airports PHIL B TCHELOR, LER OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AND COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR BY - DEPUTY -2- requirements, a Comprehensive Land Use Plan (CLUP) is required for the areas around each airport to provide guidance to local agencies on compatible land use. This plan is formulated and adopted by the Contra Costa County Airport Land Use Commission (ALUC) . The plans that are presently in effect for both airports need to be updated. In 1990, the Board of Supervisors adopted a new Airport Master Plan for Buchanan Field airport including new data on airport noise impacts, airport layout plan, and airspace needs . The existing plan for Byron Airport is intended only as an interim plan and only allows for open space uses in its vicinity. Within the last year, the California Division of Aeronautics has issued a new handbook to provide guidance to ALUCs on the formulation of a CLUP. The handbook contains new information on aircraft accident potential and aircraft overflight considerations that will aid in addressing concerns about planned airport operations and compatible land use within the County. Review by State To-Date of Funding Request The County had requested funding for the preparation of updated plans from the State . On May 1, 1996, the California Transportation Commission adopted the 1996 Aeronautics Program which selected this request for funding in fiscal year 1996-97 . The California Department of Transportation has requested that our County apply to the Commission for funding of the grant request . Effect on Implementation of 1995 Barron Airport Action Plan In authorizing this application, the Board will also be advancing the Byron Airport Action Plan which was unanimously adopted by the Board of Supervisors on November 7, 1995 . That plan specified actions to allow for the consideration of urban uses in the vicinity of the airport . C: \wpdoc\airport .bo RD\ .
