Abstract:

This report presents the findings and conclusions from a research project to explore how the principles and ; strategies of smart growth can be applied to resolving land use conflicts around airports. The study entailed a ; literature review, interviews with airport and planning agency staff and others involved in airport land use ; planning decisions and detailed case studies. The work involved in performing the case studies constituted most of ; the research effort and the case study analysis and findings comprise the largest part of this report. ; Based on the research, nine specific recommendations are made. Key among these are that Caltrans Division of ; Aeronautics should work to ensure adequate funding, staffing and training for planners charged with land use ; planning around airports. Airport Land Use Commissions should also be encouraged (and provided with ; incentives) to better disseminate their policies and decisions, and to track and report changes in land use within ; Airport Influence Areas on an annual basis. Caltrans Division of Aeronautics should also coordinate with other ; relevant state agencies to develop explicit guidelines that address smart growth planning in the vicinity of ; airports.
