There has already been considerable debate and data gathered regarding this subject, but collecting that data, considering issues and different points of view contribute to the decision making process at this regulatory level of government. I support the process completely. For me and my neighbors in and around Snohomish, the possibilities for commercial service at Paine Field are exciting and encouraging. Even though we have no illusion that service at Paine Field will be anything like Sea-Tac, the ability to have local service is encouraging. From a purely selfish point of view, being able to avoid the trip to Sea-Tac would be very desirable. My family currently uses commercial air transport a dozen or more times per year. In the scheme of things, that is not too much, but each time we have to make that journey we waste valuable time and resources. From an economic development point of view, commercial air service offers better marketability for our county and the businesses that have already made the commitment to locate here. Adding new businesses anywhere in the county improves the tax base and leverages the investment we already have made. Building on that foundation produces benefits for many. If only we were able measure lost opportunities. If this discussion were about whether we should be building a new airport on that same site in today’s world with today’s other conditions, we might be arguing for other locations as being more suitable. The fact is there is a world class publicly owned facility in place already. It was improved to accommodate jet aircraft of any size with public funds. This facility already has all the components we would require if we built a new airport on a different site. There is no doubt that encouraging the use of the airport for any purpose will create impacts. Adding business of any kind to the airport will require analysis to consider impacts to existing uses. Regardless of the specific business, off site impacts like traffic and noise will come to the area and the same process will apply when determining proper mitigation. When Snohomish County built the Solid Waste Transfer Station at Paine Field they created a stream of traffic and associated environmental impacts that may be more detrimental to the study area that increased air traffic. That project sailed through the review process without a problem. D.4 For surrounding residents, increased air traffic will certainly create some level of impact both in the air and on the ground. I don’t want to minimize their concerns. I would only suggest that when the Growth Management Act was adopted, it made provision for siting essential public facilities. The process of siting an essential public facility takes into consideration mitigation for impacts. Even though the airport already exists, the process of making it available for commercial air service may require consideration of specific measures to address impacts. As a former elected official from Snohomish, I understand the difficult position you find yourself in when you have to make the right decision for all of us taxpayers perhaps at the expense of those closest to the airport. I know you will consider all the input very carefully and make the right decision. Thank you for the opportunity to be heard. Sincerely, Stephen Dana D.5 Response to Comment Dear Stephen Dana: Thank you for your comments to the FAA; they have been noted.

  • Informational Handout: King County International Airport-Boeing Field Seattle, Washington
    Informational Handout: King County International Airport-Boeing Field Seattle, Washington Published Visual Flight Rules (VFR) routes for arrivals and departures. Project Background The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) cancelled two existing VFR routes for aircraft landing and departing King County International Airport-Boeing Field (KBFI) and replaced them with newly defined routes (retaining some of the existing names). The term “routes” can best be described in this instance as a “set of pre-coordinated instructions” that is given to VFR pilots. The routes enhance safety by increasing separation between arrival and departure flows into KBFI, Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (KSEA), and Renton Municipal Airport (KRNT). Purpose of Changes There have been Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System (TCAS) events involving VFR aircraft arriving and departing KBFI, and these routes are intended to reduce TCAS events and enhance safety. TCAS monitors the airspace around an aircraft for other aircraft equipped with proper equipment, independent of air traffic control, and warns pilots of the presence of other properly equipped aircraft in the immediate area. Project Description The project results in a change to past operating procedures by publishing several existing routes for VFR aircraft to use when arriving and departing from either runway configuration at KBFI. KBFI Airport Traffic Control Tower (BFI ATCT) now has the ability to assign published routes rather than issuing tailored instructions. The new VFR routes provide better predictability, enhance safety, and improve the segregation of aircraft arriving and departing KBFI. What Changed The new VFR routes follow pre-existing air traffic flight tracks that are assigned by BFI ATCT and no new areas will experience new air traffic overflights.

  • Starbucks Hangar Facility OFFERING
    Starbucks Hangar Facility OFFERING 6771 PERIMETER ROAD S, SEATTLE WASHINGTON 98108 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY On behalf of Starbucks Corporation, Kinzer Real Estate (“KRES”) has been retained to present to qualified parties the opportunity to purchase its leasehold interest (the “Offering”) in its current corporate hangar facility at King County International Airport (“KCIA”). Due to its increased international business and corresponding increase in travel requirements, Starbucks required an expansion of its fleet and hangar facility that its current hangar site could not accommodate. In November 2011, Starbucks secured a new lease with King County at a parcel that will accommodate its future aviation requirements, and as a result is looking to dispose of its current hangar upon completion of its new hangar. The Offering provides the rare opportunity to secure long-term access to an existing, operational hangar facility at KCIA at a favorable economic cost to potential alternatives. The Offering consists of Starbucks’ leasehold interest in an aviation hangar facility located at 6771-A Perimeter Road at KCIA. The facility consists of 14,154 square feet of improvements upon 44,252 square feet of land owned by King County. The interest is secured via sublease with Master Lessee King County Jet Center (“KCJC”), which leases the land directly from KCIA. Starbucks’ lease term is coterminous with KCJC’s lease term. Starbucks’ sublease provides for extensions coterminous with extensions of the Master Lease. Although the Master Lease does not provide KCJC with specific renewal rights, KCIA customarily renews ground leases with responsible ground lessees that professionally maintain and operate existing hangar facilities.

BACKGROUND: Sound Move calls for Sounder commuter rail to serve the City of Mukilteo as part of the Everett-to­ Seattle project. This Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) allows Sound Transit to participate in a process whereby the federal government will surplus property (the Mukilteo Tank Farm) to the Port of Everett, WSDOT Ferries, Sound Transit and cities of Mukilteo and Everett. The Port of Everett is the lead applicant. The Mukilteo tank farm is a former fuel tank farm site, covering approximately 22 acres of the City of Mukilteo's waterfront. This property is adjacent to Sounder's preferred Mukilteo station location. The property would be used to provide land for beneficial public uses on Mukilteo's waterfront. Sound Transit would be allocated a portion of land sufficient to support Sounder Commuter Rail needs at the Mukilteo Station. Opportunities identified for consideration by the parties of this MOU may include: 1.
