The Engineering Department provides the following comments on the above referenced
annexation:
The Engineering Department does not oppose this proposed annexation. Sewer and water
systems are capable of providing service to the area. The City's existing water facilities are
located on the South side of Hwy 20126 and Muller Lane. Sewer is located on the South side
of Hwy 20126 with a line going to the East of Aviation Way.
2. As development occurs within the proposed annexation area, the City would require a 40-foot
half right-of-way along the Easterly boundary of Section 23. This right-of-way would be for
the extension of Aviation Way to the North of Hwy 20126. Right-of-way and other
development issues will be dealt with when a specific development proposal is presented to
the City.
3. The development area is within 6,300 ft. of the nearest Airport runway. This means that the
site does not lie within the low-level glide path at either end of the runway. The fly-in and fly-
out rotations may track over the site, but aircraft elevations should be high enough to
attenuate noise effects substantially and permit the proposed zoning designations
contemplated in the application.
4. The Airport Master Plan includes the extension of the existing runway and the servicing of
larger aircraft than presently use the Airport. The experience at other airports is that most
people would not object to the noises expected at this site. Some overly sensitive residents
however can create havoc and legal battles that must be guarded against. The Engineering
Department recommends passive measures to limit resident's ability to challenge existing
and planned uses at the Airport. This may take the form of avigation easements or deed
restrictions and the Engineering Department invites input from the developers on ways and
means of protecting the Airport from these nuisance complaints.
