Public Hearings for Approval of Negative Declarations and Adoption of the Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan Updates for Yuba County Airport and Beale Air Force Base

The Sacramento Area Council of Governments (SACOG), serving as the Airport Land Use Commission for Yuba County, will be holding two public hearings, one each on:

  1. Approve the Negative Declaration and adopt the Beale Air Force Base Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan (ALUCP), including adoption of revised airport influence area; and
  2. Approve the Negative Declaration and adopt the Yuba County Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan, including adoption of revised airport influence area.

Thursday, March 17, 2011
9:00 a.m.
Sacramento Area Council of Governments
1415 L Street, Suite 300
Sacramento, CA 95814

Here is the agenda.

The hearings follow a public workshop held on January 25, 2011 at the Yuba County Government Center. Airport land use compatibility plans (ALUCPs) are concerned with land use compatibility around airports in terms of noise, overflight, safety, and airspace protection. They are not plans for airport development. State law requires future land use development near airports to be consistent with compatibility criteria included in an ALUCP.

To this extent the ALUCPs for Yuba County Airport and Beale AFB will add minor additional controls on future land use development around these airports. The ALUCPs do not require any changes to existing development. As identified in the draft ALUCP, the influence area for Yuba County Airport extends approximately 2.5 to 3.5 miles from the airport runways. The influence area for Beale AFB extends 5 miles east and west of the airport runway and to the Yuba County boundary on the north and south.

Copies of the two draft Negative Declarations (environmental documents prepared pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act) and draft ALUCPs may be downloaded from the links below.

If you have any questions or would like to submit formal comments for the public hearings, please do so before the hearings date and time by contacting SACOG staff person Greg Chew at (916) 340-6227 or at gchew@sacog.org.
