How it got here
The legislation originated from the need to comply with California noise standards and the Comprehensive Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan for the San Francisco International Airport.
The Planning Department determined that the acceptance and recording of avigation easements is not a project under CEQA guidelines, as it would not result in a physical change to the environment.
The Comprehensive Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan (ALUCP) was adopted, requiring property owners in certain noise contours to grant avigation easements to the City at no cost.
The Planning Department found that the proposed avigation easement for the property at 413 Alida Way is consistent with the General Plan and the eight priority policies of the Planning Code.
The Airport Commission authorized the request for the Board of Supervisors to approve the acceptance and recording of the avigation easement from Navdeep Bhakhri.
The Airport requested the Board of Supervisors' approval to accept and record an avigation easement for the property at 413 Alida Way, as required by the ALUCP.
The Board of Supervisors adopted the resolution authorizing the acceptance and recording of the avigation easement, affirming the Planning Department's CEQA determination.
