LIVE TRE " `° a " ' COMMENT COMPILATION AND RESPONSE C20 Section#2.1 Page#3-4 Comment: Fails to implement the Livermore City Council Resolution of March 23,2010"Future development at the airport shall ONLY occur in response to EXISTING AVIATION DEMAND. Whether demand exists shall be evaluated by the airport advisory commission and shall be based on TANGIBLE EVIDENCE."The Policy overrides the City resolution,erases it,rewrites it.This is completely unacceptable. R20 See R7 Comment noted.No specific alternative language or deletions provided. C21 Section#2.1 Page#3-4 Comment:Fails to implement the Livermore City Council Resolution of March 23,2010"Redevelopment at the airport shall ONLY occur if the Airport Advisory Commission determines that the existing facilities are in NEED of SIGNIFICANT rehabilitation, improvement, or replacement." (emphasis mine) This Policy ignores the City resolution.There is not one word about this in this Policy.This is unacceptable. R21 See R7 Comment noted.No specific alternative language or deletions provided. C22 Section#2.9 Page#7 Comment: Fails to specify noise impacts. Noise impacts get zero consideration in this Policy. This is unacceptable. In fact this is shocking. This Policy spells out 15 different grounds for rejecting an application or proposal. 15 different grounds,yet NOT ONE of them concerns noise impacts. R22 See R5 Comment noted.No specific alternative language or deletions provided. C23 Section#3.2 Page#9 Comment: Fails to even mention a major environmental quality issue:noise.This Policy does not specify a single means or requirement or standard about this impact.Nothing.This is unacceptable. R23 See R5 Comment noted.No specific alternative language or deletions provided. C24 Section#3.3 Page#9 Comment: Fails to specify ANY policy regarding noise. This section features much discussion of not "overburdening the land" and providing the "highest and best use". Yet not one word on noise impacts. Think about it: is ramping up the noise that hundreds of thousands of residents experience every day,the "highest and best use"? Yet this section does not even mention noise impacts. There's nothing on total noise, nothing on trends,nothing on single noise events, nothing on adhering to the night time curfew. This is unacceptable. R244 See R5 Comment noted.No specific alternative language or deletions provided. C25 Section# 1.1 through 6.9 Page#1 through 23 Comment: Fails to say a thing about noise impacts. Nothing on increased air traffic, larger or noisier planes.Nothing on more planes at lower altitudes,or more takeoffs and landings.Nothing on flight paths over residential areas.Nothing whatsoever.But airport development could affect any and all of these.For instance: a development that adds 150 flights a day of screaming loud luxury jets flying low over neighborhoods,this Policy doesn't have one word to say about that.This Policy literally has more to say about garbage can lids(they must be securely fastened)than about an issue that impacts quality of life of over 100,000 people every day.This is unacceptable.This is shocking. R25 See R5 Comment noted.No specific alternative language or deletions provided. Comment Compilation and Response 7 City of Livermore, Livermore Municipal Airport (06/05/2023)
