EXHIBIT C THE CITY OF PLEASANTON. April 7,2023 Ms. Marianna Marysheva City Manager City of Livermore 1052 S. Livermore Avenue Livermore, CA 94550-1052 Via email: mmaryshet-ti u�livermoreca._Qor RE: City of Pleasanton Comments on the Airport Development Policy and Hanger Waitlist Policy Dear Marianna— Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on the City of Livermore's(Livermore) Draft Airport Development Policy and Hangar Waitlist Policy. Please find below the City of Pleasanton's comments regarding the draft policies. As you are aware, Pleasanton and public concerns are most focused on expansion of airport activity and noise etc. associated with flight activity that may occur with such expansions. As such, it is important that Livermore's policies continue to adhere to the limitations established in Resolution 2010-058,and that there is transparency and appropriate analysis of any project with the potential to increase flight activity. While we appreciate the more detailed and comprehensive planning and approval approach reflected in the policies,the City of Pleasanton(Pleasanton) is concerned that the policies do not adequately utilize or reflect the 2010 Livermore City Council Resolution as it relates to expansion of airport activities and associated impacts, nor thoroughly articulate how the public and interested parties will be provided notification of major improvements or other planned expansion. Pleasanton's specific comments of the Draft Policies are as follows: 1. The Draft Policy does not adequately tie the basis or rationale for approval of improvements to the specific parameters outlined in Resolution 2010-058. As you are aware,the Resolution generally seeks to limit the expansion of airport operations and additional flight activity,base any expansion solely on the basis of existing demand and"tangible evidence"thereto;to control noise, and more specifically, to limit certain expansions such as the extension of runways or development of large air-cargo operations. 2. In Section 1.2,the bullet list of objectives used to evaluate proposals is deemed to "reflect the Airport Development Priorities" in Reso 2010-058. It further notes they will be"used as criteria for evaluating proposals for Airport land lease/development, as further explained in P.O.
