  • GROW OUTSIDEOUTSIDE a GUIDE to OUTDOOR PLAY Turn Over a New Leaf!
    GROWGROW OUTSIDEOUTSIDE A GUIDE TO OUTDOOR PLAY Turn over a new leaf! www.LNCIgc.org Dear Reader: Do you remember when parents told their children to “Go Outside and Play”? A time when unstructured play in nature built healthy bodies, encouraged creativity and a sense of wonder, relieved stress, facilitated learning and developed important social skills? In the relatively short span of thirty to forty years, we have removed our children from the natural environment that so effectively nurtured healthy child development. When Richard Louv published his book “Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder” in 2005, he issued a call to action for the parents and mentors of today to return children to the healthy, outdoor lifestyle that has prevailed throughout human evolution. We hope this guide will inspire you to encourage today’s children to “GO OUTSIDE AND PLAY”!! ! Leave No Child Inside – Greater Cincinnati sage ... es from uv M Richard Lo A Author, Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder Today, kids are well aware of the global threats to their environment, but their physical contact, their intimacy with nature on a day-to-day basis, is fading. A fifth-grader in a San Diego classroom put it succinctly: “I like to play indoors better ‘cause that’s where all the electrical outlets are.” I believe our society is teaching young people to avoid direct experience in nature. That unintended message is delivered by schools, families, even organizations devoted to the outdoors, and codified into the legal and regulatory structures of many of our communities – effectively banning much of the kind of play that we enjoyed as children.

  • 3.0 Land Use and Community Characteristics
    3.0 LAND USE AND COMMUNITY CHARACTERISTICS Strategies to enhance compatibility between airport operations and surrounding communities are normally developed based on an assessment of current and future land uses around the Airport. Existing land use, noise sensitive community facilities, zoning, and future land use plans in the vicinity of the Airport are examined in this chapter and form the basis for determining noise impacts to specific areas. The Airport property is located within the City of Cincinnati, a political jurisdiction in Hamilton County. However, there are numerous jurisdictions contained within the Airport Study Area, specifically Anderson Township to the east, Northern Kentucky municipalities across the Ohio River to the south and southwest, the City of Cincinnati to the east and west, and the municipalities of Fairfax, Indian Hill, Madeira, and Mariemont to the north and northeast. Exhibit 3.1-1 depicts the Jurisdictional Boundaries in the area around the Airport. 3.1 EXISTING LAND USE Identifying existing land use within the vicinity of the Airport is important to the FAR Part 150 Study. To assess those uses that could be identified by the FAA as being “noise sensitive”, the FAA has identified land use compatibility guidelines (using annual day/night average sound levels), relating the various types of land use to degrees of airport noise levels. The guidelines presented in the FAR Part 150 and reproduced in Table 3.1-1, set compatibility guidelines for residential, public, commercial, manufacturing and production, and recreational land uses. As demonstrated by these guidelines, all land uses in areas of less than DNL 65 dB are generally considered compatible with airport operations.
