The study in this resort city involved an update of
1987 Part 150 NEM and NCP prepared by our firm. The update was done with
a Master Plan study and involved four jurisdictions. Key noise abatement
measures involved a runway extension and adjustments to departure tracks
and calm wind runway use to minimize noise impacts on residential areas
north and south of the airport. A noise berm and an extension of a noise
wall also were recommended. Major land use management measures involved
sound insulation, revising airport combining zoning boundaries, and rezoning
for compatible land use.
