Home My WebLink AboutSS4 - John Wayne Airport Update - CorrespondenceJOHN WAYNE AIRPORT REQUEST FOR RELIEF PETITION FROM THE RESIDENTS OF NEWPORT BEACH The residents of Newport Beach do declare as follows: Noise, pollution and safety from airplanes are the greatest quality of life issue to most residents located near or under the departure pattern from JWA. The City Council of Newport Beach has not developed adaquate public policy to recognize all of the impacts of John Wayne Airport. To date, discussions have been to resolve the issues in the Backbay resulting in the changes from the FAA Metroplex Project. The neighborhoods under the departing planes after the Backbay have not been properly included in prior consideration and subsequent discussions of problems that need to be addressed. The City inaccurately refers to historic departure pattern when it originated over the turning basin and has changed over the years now narrowed to a pattern which has concentrated noise, pollution and the concern of safety. The undersigned request that the City Council of Newport Beach develop a specific policy to address the impact of JWA on residents. This policy should be designed to provide the highest quality of life to residents and should state that planes should fly over the most water and least number of residents. The City should advocate a plan of relief for the neighborhoods that have constant noise, pollution and concern of safety from JWA. The City of Newport Beach should work with other communities with similar problems, the airlines, FAA, the County of Orange, State and Federal elected officials and agencies using any effort necessary to provide relief to our neighborhoods. Bayside Cove Community Association September 16, 2017 Mayor and City Council City of Newport Beach, California We are a condominium association consisting of 58 units located on Bayside Drive directly across from Balboa Island. The recent changes to the John Wayne Airport departure patterns resulting from the implementation of Nextgen has resulted in a more concentrated environmental impact on certain Newport Beach neighborhoods including our own. Since the change, virtually all flights departing from JWA come directly over our association with little variation. This subjects our residents to continuous noise and particulate pollution during flight operational hours. These changes in flight patterns are inconsistent with the City of Newport Beach's position to depart from JWA over the most open water possible. In addition, the departures should impact the least number of residents of Newport Beach. The current fixed takeoff flight pattern concentrates all of the environmental impacts (noise and particulate) on many residential areas. As a member of this group of residents, we strongly request the City of Newport Beach work on behalf of their citizens to provide relief from this excessive pollution. Variations of the current departure pattern or a flexible flight path would help mitigate these environmental impacts. Very truly yours, Bayside Cove Community Association ohn H.

Specifically, we believe there to be extreme environmental damage as more flights, and thus noise and air pollution, are directed over Beacon Bay. These changes are inconsistent with the City of Newport Beach position to depart from JWA over the most open water possible. In addition, the departures should impact the least number of residents of Newport Beach. The current fixed takeoff flight path concentrates all of the environmental impacts on many residential areas and does not consider these factors. The impacted residents of Beacon Bay request the City Council of Newport Beach work on behalf of their residents to provide relief. Variation of the current departure pattern away from our neighborhood or a flexible flight path would help mitigate these environmental impacts. 415-305-4554 s directly.
