Inventory of Existing Conditions
Buchanan Field Airport Master Planning Program Field A. INVENTORY OF EXISTING CONDITIONS Buchanan A > Inventory of Existing Conditions INTRODUCTION. Buchanan Field Airport (CCR) is the major general aviation reliever airport serving Contra Costa County and multiple communities located in the northeastern portion of the greater San Francisco Bay Area (see Figure A1). The Airport has been a catalyst for business growth in the region and has served as an anchor for the local employment base, as well as meeting the aviation transportation needs. Situated in an unincorporated portion of Contra Costa County, directly adjacent to the thriving urban heartbeat of the City of Concord, Buchanan Field Airport is a vital component of the transportation infrastructure serving the region for tourism and business. Buchanan Field Airport is well equipped to serve regional demand related to general aviation and business aviation needs. The Airport has a reputation as being an excellent aviation facility that offers a safe and efficient operational environment. The Bay Area continues to experience significant increases in business activity, commercial and residential growth, and economic development. Because of this, Buchanan Field Airport is also being presented with increasing operational and facility demands. Many of the areas surrounding the Airport, with many high quality homes and environmental amenities, have experienced significant residential development, resulting in homeowner concerns about the effect that the Airport may have on their lifestyle. Some of these homes and facilities are located within a two to three mile radius of the Airport. Thus, the Airport may influence the social, economic, and physical environments of the area in which it operates. -

Sonoma Skypark News December 2017
SONOMA SKYPARK NEWS DECEMBER 2017 SKYPARK CHRISTMAS PARTY- This last Friday night a little over 100 Skyparkian’s celebrated the beginning of the Christmas season with warm greetings, beverages, good food, music, and a gift exchange. Darrel Jones and Kathy Carmichael organized lots of volunteers. Many of us decorated hangar, A-3, Thursday afternoon. I want to especially thank Marilyn & Bob Avrit for the outstanding table decorations. The airport supplied drinks and the roasted turkey and ham. Richard Craig & Sandra Hoke carved and served the turkey & ham. Marci Fahraji supervised the kitchen volunteers and generally filled in where ever she was needed. Thanks to all the attendees who brought appetizers, main dishes, salads and desserts. The party goers were very generous with their contributions to the Toys-for-Tots gift boxes, filling them to over flow!! I wish you all a Happy Holiday Season. AIRPORT HAPPENINGS Long time Skypark pilot and hangar owner Herman Bauer sold his Mooney last year and last month he sold hangar M-1 to Eric Presten. Eric sold his hangar L-2 to Skypark pilot Michel Oltramare. Skypark is welcoming new hangar owners Jonathan Clark & Lee Schaller to the airport. Jonathan bought my hangar A-3 for his Cirrus and will continue renting some space. Lee bought Jack Strehl’s hangar M-3 and will continue renting to the pilots presently in the hangar. Ken Thornton purchased a Piper Clipper recently and is learning to fly in it with Richard Craig as his instructor. This last Tuesday Ken received some unplanned cross-wind instruction when he and Richard returned to Skypark just after the big wind started. -
