1. The location of the proposed Wal-Mart Store and area affected by
the proposed Planned Development Amendment is well outside of
the established (based upon FAA airspace standards) flight path
for both landing and takeoff aircraft operations at the Ukiah
Airport, being 1,800 feet east of the runway (final leg), 4,000
feet and 700-1,500 feet south of the standard and short base
legs respectively, and 2,800 feet west of the downwind leg.
2. The project location is not within any of the critical approach
or safety areas of the airport including the Object Free Area
(OFA), Runway Protection Zone (RPZ), and the Approach Surface
Area, and the proposed structure is not within the Transitional
Surface Area.
3. In addition to the subject property not being sited within or
under the flight path or any critical airspace area, the
location is outside the area of high (greater than 80%)
statistical probability for an aircraft accident.
4. The height of the proposed Wal-Mart building is considerably
lower than the FAA established height limits, will not penetrate
the airport's 7:1 transitional surface, is 144 feet below the
designated airport horizontal surface, and thus is not an
obstruction relative to flight operations.
5. The Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL) on the project site
based upon airport operations is less than 60dB, well below any
excessive noise exposure which would be considered problematic
or sensitive for commercial development, or individuals
utilizing the facility.

In light of these facts, the approval of the Planned Development
Amendment and the Site Development Permit are consistent with regulations
to minimize the public's exposure to excessive noise and safety hazards
and do not create new noise, safety, or land use compatibility issues
which conflict with State or local statutes for airport land use planning.
