Preface

The League of Women Voters of Santa Monica urges master planning of the entire airport area.

Whether or not a master plan is implemented, the LWVSM urges support for the following:

1. Environmental Measures
1. Maintain current curfew hours or their expansion after 2015.
2. Maintain current noise level limit or its reduction after 2015.
3. Continuation and expansion of staff education programs for pilot cooperation programs such as noise level reduction procedures.
4. Strict enforcement of safety and environmental rules/regulations subject to periodic review.
5. Monitor emissions and noise, increase research into their impact and support steps to mitigate those impacts as they become known.
2. Residual/Non-Aviation Land Use Measures
1. Continuation of programs aimed at public safety and education.
2. Land use proposals should take into consideration the impacts of traffic, parking, noise, and emissions.
3. If the airport is closed, we recommend primary consideration be given to the original intent, which is parkland.
3. Safety and Security Measures
1. Active pursuit of Safety Zone Implementation and the Aircraft Conformance Program.
2. Support for increased safety and appropriate security measures.
