4. Technical Advisor's Runwav Svstem Utilization Report and Complaint Summarv
The Technical Adviso�"s Report for the month of February 1996 was distributed and reviewed
by John Foggia. Points of interest included:
` 1290 average number of operations per day (increased by 37 over last year).
* 482 noise complaints �decreased by 288 over last year).
'` The MAC Intemet Website is up-and-running - questions and comments can be
forwarded to the MAC Aviation Noise and Satellite Program Department.: A reminder
that the I�temet and E-mail address has been added to the front cover sheet of the
Technical Adviso�'s Report.
* The Tower Log reports show that usage of the Crosswind Runway is down - caused
by necessity of snow removal. 2.4% of departures were off Runway 22.
* Nighttime carrier jet operation departures off Runway 29UR were at 39.7% - attributed
to weather conditions.
* Stage 3 carrier jet operations were 47.4%.
* �Total carrier jet operations for February 1996 - 24,626.
Mr. Foggia communicated that MAC Aviation Noise and Satelite Program staff, Jeff Fiamiel,.
and Nigel Finney, will be meeting with MSP Tower Chief, after the 1996 l.egislative session
closes regarding incneased tra�c overSouth Minneapolis and possible altematives forstraight-
out departures. �
Jill Smith, Mendota Heights, expressed concems pertaining to whether or not the Dual Track
process used updated forecasts on the increase of operations at MSP, and whether or not
there will be a monitoring process against projectians to insure that planning for the airport is
adequate. Commissioner Himle responded that MAC will be required to present .a 5-year
update to the �egislature and general public relative to the status of the forecast. If there are
reports indicating traffic increases over and above the forecast figures, there will be an
obligation to produce updated data, assessments and reports. ,

5. MASAC Address: John Himle, Chairman. MAC Piannina & Environment Committee
�'
Chairman Johnson introduced Commissioner John Himle who addressed the Council regarding <
the Dual Track process/decision.
The requirements of the Dual Track process were completed ahead of the July 1996 schedule.
The final recommendation delivered to the Governor/Minnesota Legislature March 18 is that
MSP can continue to meet the aviation needs of the area through the year 2020.
The three key issues taken into consideration for the recommendation:
(1) Aviation needs can be met by continued development of MSP through the year 2020
(2) MSP expansion provides more flexibility and less �nancial risk than building a new
airport
(3) There is no economic advantage to build a new airport
It is important to realize that the recommendation dealt with a forecast range, and not a precise
number of operations and passengers. Alternative forecasts were prepared for contingencies
such as unusually high or low growth rates, changes in airfares and airline policy. The high
end of the forecast range is 48M annual passengers and 640,000 annual operations in the .
year 2020. �
The airline trend will see a consolidation toward larger aircraft. This is a key factor that "all
operations are not created equal". There is a tendancy to'replace smaller aircraft with larger
aircraft. The idea and purpose of the airport, is to move more passengers and cargo - not
more aircraft. In the forecast, the number of passengers increases at a fa� greater percentage
rate than the rate of operations. �"
Additionally, the Dual Track process requires MAC to complete a noise mitigation plan for MSP
within 180 days. This plan will consider mitigation options for areas in the 60 DNL contour,
and should take into consideration proposed runway development. In order to meet this
timeframe, a recommendation will be presented to the MAC Commission in September and
then submitted to the Legislature. Commissioner Steve Cramer will be leading this effort and
will be instrumental in the recommendation. .
A lengthy discussion session ensued, focusing primarily on increased operations, runway
capacity and contiFlgencies for noise mitigation.
Commissioner Himle pointed out that several of the noise mitigation measures to be
considered, will not require the support jor approval] of the Legislature. One being, the
additional step taken to go beyond federal funding of the Part 150 Sound Insulation Program.
PROACTIVELY, COMMUNITIESSHOULDSUBMITIDEASANDTOOLS FORALTERNATIVE
LAND USE PROGRAMS WITHIN THE NEXT 90-DAYS.
The Legislature may include ir� the Bill, that adding a third parallel runway is not an option.
To consider this option may require approval by the �egislature. The current forecasts are
predicated on a very important assumption - that there will be no fu�ther enhancements in
technology of the air tra�c systems. This is not an accurate assumption. In the last 20-years,
there has been a 40% increase in the capacity of the air traffic system largely due to changes
and improvements in new technology (radar systems, weather tracking systems, new
Page 3
procedures, etc.). The net affect is to get more capacity out of the existing airport. It is only
reasonable to believe... there wili be further enhancements to the technological aspects of the
airport. �
Expectations of the airpo�t communities were considered by the Dual Track process and
reflected in the forecasts. MAC will be held accountable for these forecasts. A statutory
review process is required every 5-years or sooner. Mitigative measures will be taken to
correct adverse effects.
The Airport Planning/Bloomington TIF (tax increment financing) Bill is still in the Legislature as
of this date. The legislation affecting MAC, permits the Metropolitan Council to .buy the Met
Center if necessary, permits the Bloomington Port Authority to transfer TIF rights to Met Center
property if a number of conditions are met, and allows MAC to acquire the 33 acres adjacent
to the Mall of America for a north/south runway. This (when the Mall of America's
development rights are transferred) will result in significant cost savings to the public.
Jim Serrin, Minneapolis, expressed his concerns, that the north/south n.mway would not be a
noise abatement measure. In his opinion, planning was based on incorrect analysis. "Will it
mitigate noise for Minneapolis, or not?" Commissioner Himle stated that although the
north/south runway is intended to increase capacity, it may, in his opinion, provide some
measure of noise abatement. Mr. Serrin disagreed.
Don Priebe, relayed for the record, that the Richfield City Council wants to "kill" fhe north/south
runway project: Commissioner Himle responded that he has received phone calls from
Richfield residents in favor of the north/south ru�way...it appears to be a divided issue in
Richfield. .
i �� �
� )6. GPS Utilization for Noise Abatement Procedures
Information Item: John Foggia will give a comprehensive presentation on GPS, April 22, at
the Midwest Chapter of AAAE Aviation Symposium.
Mr. Foggia relayed that according to the FAA, I LS will be gone by the year 201 Q. Through
automation, nine years from now technology will be totally changed. Ai�ports will be equal
planning partners with the ai�lines. Significant enhancements will take place in airspace
management. NASA currently has a study underway looking for 10d6 noise reduction in
engine and airframe technology. Their goal is to get this type of reduction (10d6) by the year
2000.
Mr. Foggia presented the following GPS report:
GPS Basics
Implementation: GPS-driven noise abatement determine appropriate pathpoints
- precision amval
- precision missed approach
- precision departure
- precision ground movement
Page 4
To utilize GPS positioning:
- ground Station corrections
- on-board GPS receiver
- Data Link with pathpoints
- on-board Navigation computer
- FMS/autopiloUNavigation display
Schedule: Flight testing begins April 15. The SLS 2000 SCAT-I Precision Landing
System Commissioning - June 1.
Near Future: Satellite-based flight control - human factors and technology:
- Cultural change - relinquish control to automation
- Cockpit culture must accept automation
- All aircraft will function with a Datalink
- Communities must realize that asking too much will close them out of future planning
Airports will own technology, making them equal implementation partners. Airports will
need to temper what is too much.
7. Reaort of the Executive Committee Meetinq March 14 1996
Chairman Johnson reported that the MASAC Executive Committee reviewed a request from
the. City of Sunfish Lake for full voting membership status on MASAC. The Committee
determined that Sunfish Lake has met requirements for attendance at 12 consecutive MASAC
meetings, and meets the eligibility requirement of the MASAC By-�aws.
The Executive Committee recommends that the City of Sunfish Lake be admitted to full (
MASAC membership. A search is underway for a balancing user representative to satisfy the
MASAC Articles of Incorporation requirement: that the User Representatives and the Public
Representafives shall at al! times be equal in number.
The actual MASAC vote on this recommendation will take place at the regularly scheduled
April meeting.
8. Report of MAC March Commission Meetinq
Chairman Johnsori reported that the recommendation of the Dual Track Airport Planning
Process, that aviation needs can be met.by continued development of MSP through the year
2020, was approved by the Commission and will be fonNarded to Legislature. The following
day, March 14, the Metropolitan . Council concurred and approved the recommendation to
remain at MSP.
9. Persons Wishinq to Address the Coucil
Borys Polec reiterated noise complaints - there are planes over his Minneapolis home every
30 seconds. RMT number 6 registers 90dB - people can't live with this noise. There are also
many disturbing nighttime flights at low altitudes. He asked that ai� tra�c be distributed evenly
over the surrounding communities. �

10. Other Items Not on the AQenda
John Richter read a news article which is attached to the minutes for your review.
Jill Smith, Mendota Heights, questioned the status of the Noise Abatement Departure Profiles
to which Mark Salmen, NWA; responded: the contour analysis is underway and when
received, the Operations Committee will meet and arrive at a final recommendation, hopefully
within the next two months.
Dick Saunders of the Diamond Lake area of Minneapolis, asked what the air traffic pattems
will be during Runway 4/22 construction. John Foggia responded that the noise impact during
construction will be little to none.
11. Adjournment
Chairman Johnson adjoumed the meeting at 10:00 p.m.
Respectfully submitted:
Jean Deighton, Secretary

Dear Mr. Emst,
I read that you were able to buy a home for several thousand dollars less because of the
aircraft noise. In fact, the FAA states that an average of 18 1/2% reduction in value is a
norm for homes where there is a certain amount of aircra$ noise.
Lets assu.me one of your new neighbors wants to move to Bloomington where you moved
from. Since the aircraft noise cuts down the value of their present homes how are they
.. going to pay for a new home in Bloomiugton.
Maybe you can ask the Airport Commission and Northwest Airlines to provide to your
neighbors tlie money to make up for the loss in selling their home near the present airport.
You might like to Imow a 8 year study ofhomes near the present "in town airport" clearly
sl�ows tliat Hennepin County, the Ciry of Minneapolis and the Minneapolis School District
are being penalized severely because of the noise. (
Values of homes iin the 75 DMR only went up.7%, the 70 DMB 12%, 65 DMB 19% and
60 DMB 21 % while the cost of living went up some 21 °/a.
Most homes near the parkways and lakes went up more tha.n the cost of living except near
the airport.
Sincerely,
John T. Richter

letter about south Minneapolis resi-
dents whining about airport noise: I
bought my home in 1994, for a price
many thousands lower than Blooming-
ton or Richfield. To me, that noise is
the sound of money. I'm happy as a

A rneetietg of the Nar�hern Dakota County Airpor� fZelaiions Coalition was held on Tuesday, Aprl
16, 1996 at 7:30 a.m. Present were Wif� Egmion of fnver Grove Heights, Kevin 6atchelder and Ai Stein of
Mendota Heights, Glenda Spiotta of Sur►fish Lake and Mike Schiax and Jon Hohenstein of Eagan. Kevin
Batchelde� agreed to chair the meetins�.
�G�NDA
The agenda was approved by acclamation.
N�INUTE5 .
Upon motian by Schlax, seconded by Eginton, all members vatinp in favor, thP minutes of the ,
March 19, i996 meeting were approved as presented.
AIRPORT EXPANStON NOISE MITtGAi'!ON PLAN
Hohenstein overviewed the MAC discussion regarding a noise mitigation planning group consisti�g
af MAC rep�esentatives, Metropotitan Cauncti representatives and the Mayors of the affected ci6es. He said
�
� #hat the legislation conceming the airport expansion required the group to meet �nd prepare conciusions
by this September. He suggesterl that citips ���tsid� of thP 6� DNL contour, which we�e not included in the
group, rnake an effort to pa�ticipate in the meetings.
The group discussed the effect af the le�yisiative acti�n on the airpart issue. It was notetl thaE it
would acce�erate the constructian ofthe north south runway, ptace rest�ctions an the construction of a north
parallel runway and west terminat wittiout tegislative app�oval and identify triggers for future pl�nning efforts
if traffic levels are exceeded.
6atchelder noted #hat airpo�t opponents, including Dakota Caunty, short-circuited the dual t�ack
process and that they were very well organized. He said that the 180 day process for the development of
noise mitigation efforts is very.important. 3chlax stated that the prob(em was that no one in a leadership
position. ever �eatly picked up the banner of retoc.ation. Batchelder stated that in retraspeet, Me�dota
�' Heights would like(y have supported site preservation and conditions for expansion if the dual track process
had fallowing its intend.ed course,
Eginton asked if GPS and other technical improvements would increase capacity. Schlax stated
that it requiras a change in FAA philo�ophy, but that John Foggia bclieves ths GPS will improve efficiencies
and capacity at the airport. Hohenstein indicated that even if there is increased efficiency in the air, the
time that arrivals need to be on the ground before departure can occur will also limit capacity �t the airport,
The group determineci to place this item on the next agenda and continue its discussions of the issue.
DEPARTURE �ROFE�ES
Ths�e was a brief discussio� of departure profiles and it was indicated that people's perceptions af MAC
presertfaiians �t the various cities differed. It was suggested that information to be received from HNN
woutd be sha�ed with the g�roup to cla�ify the issue.

less poputated areas of Inver Grove Heights. The attected cities Indtcated thai they woufd work together
to identify appropriate tracks as GPS becomes a reality.

Cha.irman Johnson called the meeting to order at 12:10 p.m.
�' A•ieport package was distributed to all'rnembers which included: Estimated Total Project �992-2001,
Completion and Funding Summary 1992-1995, Projected Schedule 1996-2000, December Monthly Status
Report, 1996 Project Schedules (1200 homes/12 bid cycles), Projected Funding Sources 1996-1997,
Conespondence regarding the FAA Part I50 Boundary Block Eligibility Decision, Design and Canstruction
� Tasks, $25,000 Cap Proposed Changes, and Duplex Structures Proposed Changes.
PRQGRAM UPDATE
Steve Vecchi reviewed the estimated total project of 8,867 homes at a cost of $153,400,000. Of interest,
the workscope has been divided into three areas: (1) completed workscope 8,823 homes 1992-1995, (2)
remaining workscope 5,368 homes 1996-2001, and (3) deferred hornes (4/22 mitigarion) 1,676 homes in
South Richfield and Bloomington. �
The completion and funding surnmary totals from 1992 to 1995 included 1,823 homes at a cost of $35.2M.
$19.SM was received from AIP Grant funding, and $15.7M from Passenger Facility Charges (PFCs).
The remaiiving 5,368 homes in (North Richfield South Minneapolis, Eagan and Mendota Heights) 1996 to
2000 schedule will cost $92,500,000. The projected funding sources are AIP. Grants $25.9M, PFCs $62M
and MAC $4.6M. These projections are at the new accelerated rate of 1200 homes per yeaz which is a
large increase over the current rate of 840 hornes uer year. If is important to note that one of MAC's
concerns is to maintain •the 28% AIP Grant funds or at least $SM or greater annua.11y in order to proceed
at the rate of 1200 homes. In the event AIP funding decreases, the Commission wants the option to recatl
and review funding sources.
As of December 1, 1995, MAC completed sound insulation modifications on a total of 1;447 homes since
the program began in 1992. An additiona1547 homes are currently involved in either the pre-construction
or construction phases. A table was distributed summarizing the number of city-specific homes completed,
in pre-construction, and in construction.
Mr. Vecchi called attention to the fact that Commission action is tied to the dollar amount - not the number
of homes being insulated. MAC will insulate as many homes for $20.7M annually as possible. At this
time, this is projected to be 1200 homes. Rising costs could alter the number of homes completed annually. �
� :• �• • : • � •
The FAA-Airports District Office concurred in writing an November 19, 1995, that all homes within
"boundary blocks" defined by the cunently approved 1996 Noise Exposure Map are approved for sound
insulation modi�cations using either AIP or PFC funds. This decision will remain valid until new Noise
Exposure Maps are developed and approved by the FAA.
HOMEOWNER ORIENTATION LETTER
In order to keep up ttie pace of the "block-by-block method and to keep a continuity with the construction,
the homeowner orientation letter will be worded more firnily regazding participation in the program. If they
do not wish to participate in the program within a 2-month period after notification, these homes will be
deferred until the very end of the program and only when all other homes are completed.
C�E ADMiNISTRATION CHANGES � . �
Tom Brown, MAC Part 1 SO Construction Manager, announced that Colin Carnpbell resigned from CEE.
Mr. Campbell supervised the program staff, served as the primary contact with MAC, prepared contracts
and budgets, reviewed documents/correspondence, developed policies/guidelines, and provided a wide
variety of program-related tasks required by MAC. CEE and MAC are now in the process of selecting a
new Project Manager to replace him.
Procedural changes within CEE have been made to accommodate the accelerated volume of homes to be �
insulated in the upcoming year. Design has been separated from construcrion management. This will allow
the construction coordinators to spend more time in the field. Four individuals will perform the design tasks
of conducting house inspection visits, develop design, prepare bid estimates, conduct design review, and
wimess signing of the Work Agreement. A Construction Coordinator will review design, perform pre-
construction walk through, daily monitoring of construction, conduct substantial campletion inspection, and
conduct final inspection/closeout.
A recruitment phase has also been on-going to get more contractors and suppliers into the program. Five
new contractors have been added since spring 1�95.
ACTION ITEM $25,000 Cap - Proposed Change
Tom Brown relayed it has been identified that future project azeas contain larger housing stock which means
a greater number of windows/doors, larger square footage, and greater existing mechanical systems. Two
other factors are: the effect of inflation since 1992 "Pilot" yeaz, and the continued responsibility to achieve
5 dB reducrion goal (regardless of house size).
A proposal was presented to establish a new $30,000 Cap:
* will only effect a minimum number of larger homes
* will n�t ha.ve a major effect on overall project costs
* will insure S dB package goal
* staff will monitor designs between $25,000-$30,000
2 �
�
It is estimated that only 5% of the homes will run over $25,000. Also, there is a competitive nature in the
bidding process which will assure the rightful contracting price.
It was moved and seconded. to establish a new $3Q000 cap as presented above. A vote was taken and
�nanimousl,�passed.
ACTION ITEM Duplex Structures Proposed Change ''
Tom Brown expiained that a duplex structure shauld be done as one project and shauld have the same
General Contractor, the same construction warranty package, and the same products (window, door, etc.).
A proposal was presented to establish "Duplex Structure" as a single construction contract with a$60,000
cap:
* uniform construction and products
* simplified. construction management
* reduced paperwork

OTHER ITEMS
Steve Vecchi introduced John Foggia, Manager MAC Aviation Noise & Satellite Programs and his staff:
Roy Fuhrmann, Supervisor Aviation Noise & Satellite Progan�s, Traci Erickson, ANOMS Specialist, Dan
;� � Pfeffer, GIS Specialist, who technically support the Part 150 Program with the Geographical Information
System for block prioritization, interface with the FAA, and generate ANOMS flight tracks. Prioritizing
by block based on real noise events is unique and extremely accurate compazed to all other U.S. airports.
Mr. Vecchi relayed that in the near future a block prioritization map will be printed for each city. Color
coding will depict houses completed and houses eligible.
The meeting was adjourned at 1:10 p.m.

Jean Deighton, PAC Secretary
Addendum to Minutes of the Policy Advisory Committee meeting December 19, 1995:
�
Two weeks after the December 19, 1995, PAC meeting, staff learned of an
eacisting State of Minnesota law prohibiting projects utilizing certified general
contractors (restricted bid) to exceed a total cost of $2S, 000 per project. Only
"open bid" projects (available to any and all contractors) are allowed to
exceed $2S, 000.
Since the MAC Part 1 SO Sound Insulation Program "cert�es" all program
general contractors, requiring them to meet stringent insurance, bonding and
licensing requirements, MAC is restricted by state law to maintain the $25, 000
Cap. .
Unfortunately, items passed by the PAC on December 19 in reference to raisir.g
the Cap to $30,000 and increasing a duplex structure to a$6D,OQ0 joint Cap,
, , cannot be approved: , � � .

Subject: Discuss MSP Mitigation Committee and Review Noise Mitigation Plan
The Dua1 Track legislation requires the Metropolitan Airports Commission (MAC)
produce a Noise Mitigation Plan within.180 days of making a recommenda.tion on one track or
the other. The MAC made a recommendation in Mazch that the MSP expansion plan was the
preferred alternative and the Legisla.ture acted upon this recommendation before adjourning.
The MAC has recently formed a committee, called the MSP Mitigati.on Committee, to
include neighboring communities in the development of this noise mitigation plan. The MSP
Mitigation Committee will be chaired by Mr. Steve Cramer, 1VIAC Commissioner and former
Minnea.polis Councilmember. The members of the committee will include the Mayors of each
of the communities that border the MSP International Airport. The first meeting is scheduled
for May 16, 1996. (Please see attached agenda.) �
This mitigation plan is a prime opportunity for Mendota Heights, and other MSP
communities, to advocate for noise mitigati.on efforts. I have attached our Noise Mitigation
Plan that was produced last year. Also attached in the MSP Communities - Community
Protection Concept Package. As the Commission will recall, Mendota. Heights did not
participate in the City of Richfield's efforts to legislate the protection package. (Please see
attached December S, 1995 letter to Jim Prosser from myself.)
Mendota. Iieights did not participate in Richf'ield's efforts on the community protection
package because it did not include any operational mitigation efforts. This does not mean that
we cannot support some of the non-operational mitigation efforts, while pushing for
operational changes at the same time.
The purpose of this discussion will be to provide Mayor Mertensotto with some
guida.nce, support and background work to assist his participation on the MSP Mitigation
Committee.

CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS
. , , , � „ , � � � ,
As a community directly and severely affected by aircraft operations at
Minneapolis-St. Paul internafiional Airport (IVISP), the City of Mendota Heights is
very concerned over the future configuration and operation of the airport. As part
of the Duai Track Airport Planning Process, the City has been approached by the
Metropolitan Council to discuss ways in which our community is impacted..by #he
airpart, a�d strategies for mitigating these impacts.
The Minneapolis/St. Paul Area Community Protection Concept Package
prepared by the Metropolitan Councii represents the product of these discussions
and attempts to provide a number of toois and techniques by which flltendota
Heights and other nearby communities will be able to address airport related
impacts. The City of Mendota. Heights supports the adoption of the Metropolitan
Counci! Community Protection Package based upon the foilowing jusiification of
need anci operafional considerations.
As the nurnber of PUISP aircraft operations has grown, air noise impacts
within Mendota Heights have increased dramaticaily. Many of the noise impacted
, � areas within our City are older residential areas (built in the 1940's, 50°s and 60°s)
`_ which cleariy pre-date the surge in air traffic experienced at MSP during the
1980's and 90's. As a result of i�creased noise exposure, these oider Mendota
. Heights residential neighborhoods have experienced disinvestment and decline. in
order to stabilize ifiese areas and maintain their viability, the use of property value
guarantees,� tax credits for housi�g revitalization, aggressive sound insulation
programs, and other described community stabilization programs is necessary and
warranted.
Residential neighborhoods potentiaily eligibie for these programs include
the Furlong Addifion along State Trunk Highway 55, Curiey Addition aiong
Lexington Avenue, Rogers Lake Addition along State Trunk Highway 149, Friendiy
Hiils Addition along State Trunk Highway 149, and other scattered neighborhoods
located in identified noise impacted areas.
Revitalization of industrial properties within the City°s Business Park wili
similarly require substantial resources over time. In order to maintain �the long
term economic heaith of this area, the City Council would consider the selective
use ofi community stabilization and revitalizafion fioois described in the Community
Protection Concept Package.
City of Mendota Heights
MSP Airport Noise Mitigation Needs
Page 2 �
The Community Protection Concept Package also discusses a number of
airport protection measures designed to prevent incampatibie land development in
airport impacted areas. As a community incorporated in 1956 and comprehen-
sively planned in 1959, the City of Mendota Heights has a number of established
land use patterns which limits its ability to make sweeping land use modifications
for the sake of airport expansion. For instance, the City of Mendota Heights is
already 90-95% developed. Nonetheless, the City of Mendota Heights has for
many years cooperated with the Metropolitan Council in adopting and enforcing
land use controls related to the airport.
In 9 987, the City of Mendota Heights became the first and only city to
adopt the Metropolitan Council's Aircraft Noise Attenuation Ordinance and has
strenuously enfarced the Metropolitan Council's Guideli�es for Construction Within
Aircraft Noise Exposure Zones. In addition, the City has made a concerted effort
to limit the total number of new residential units located in areas overflown by
aircraft, and has experienced substantial costs in support of litigation to achieve
these goals. � � �
The City takes seriously its responsibility to control the developmenfi of
noise incompatible land uses within IVlendota Heights. As such, the City does not
support the creation of another regulatory body, such as the Airport Zoning Board,
to usurp the land use auihority vested in our duly elected public officials. lf
"teeth" are to be put into tfie enforcement of land use patterns, the cities
themselves should be ihe enforcing authority, not some distant, non-representative
board such as the Airport Zoning Board.
'fhis is nofi to say #hat the L�gislature, the Metropolitan �►irpor�ts
Commission, and the Metropolitan Council do not have important roles to play in
regulating air noise generation and exposure. If MSP is to continue to exist in its
present location, it is essential that "teeth" also be put into the regulations
affecting the operation of the airport. Long term community compatibility with �
MSP is premised on the following:
1) The aircraft departure corridor should be narrowed over Mendota Heights
and Eagan to take full advantage of the latest air tcaffic control technology.
The introduction of a Global Positioning Satellite navigation system at MSP
in Fall 1995 should greatly improve the safety of airspace management, and
will also lessen the distance aircraft need to be separated from one another
to ensure passenger safety. Other precision air traffic control advancements
on the horizon will only help the MAC and FAA better utilize the airspace
surrounding MSP to minimize air noise impacts over residential areas.
City of Mendota Heights
MSP Airport Noise Mitigation Needs
Page 3
2) The inequitable reliance on the Mendota Heights/Eagan corridor should be
eliminated. The capacity of the corridor is finite, and communities
over-flown by aircraft using the corridoe� ought noi be expected to endure air
noise exposure beyond a fair limit. �411 communities surrounding MSP
receive significant economic be�efit from its close proximity. Similarly, ail
should be expected to bear a reasonable and equitable share of the �
associated noise burden as weli.
3) Over the Mendota Heights/Eagan area, departing aircraft should be directed
to utilize, to the fullest e�ent possible, less noise sensitive areas, such as
industrial park properiy and highway rights of way. These areas have been
planned in conformance with existing and approved airport runway
configur�tions, are in conformance with IVtetropolitan Council guidelines,
and have been approved by the nlletropolitan Council. To fully accompiish
this goal, aircraft during non-busy hours shouid be directed to fly a crossing
pattern in the corridor, rather than being given departure headings which
overtiy close-in residentiai areas. This crossing procedure duri�g non-busy
times has been approved by the Nletropolitan Airports Commission and is
currentiy awaiting impiementation by the Federal Aviation Administration.
4) Once modified to take advantage of ihe latest air traffic control technology
and adjusted to correct for air noise distributionai inequities, the boundaries
of the aircraft departure and arrival corridors should be specifically defined,
and air noise exposure standards should be estabiished along this corridor.
Aircraft operators violating these standards should be subject to substantial
monetary fines.
5) Nighttime aircraft restrictions should be put into place immediately to ensure
that o�ly Stage ill quieter aircraft are flown between the hours of 10:30
p.m. and 6:00 a.m. Such restrictions shouid be mandatory and viotation of
the standards should result in a monetary fine to the offending air carrier.
6) Noise Abatement Departure Procedures trelated to how quickly aircraft gain
altitude upon departure) should be reviewed and adjusted to ensure that the
full performance capabilities of all aircraft are being utilized. The ability of
aircraft to rapidly gain altitude, thereby minimizing aircraft noise levels
experienced on the ground, should be quantified and made part of air traffic
departure procedures at MSP. This is especially true for Stage III aircraft.

MSP Airport Noise Mitigation Needs

7) in its MSP Comprehensive Plan, the MAC has identified a future runway
construction project located on the west side of the airport property. This
new North/South runway, if built, is expected to accommodate air traffic
needs well beyond 2020. The face of aviation will be considerabiy different
by that time and will hopefully include later generation aircraft which will be
substantially quieter than the current Stage 111 quiet aircraft, and high
precision air traffic control technology which will ensure safe airspace
management with a minimum of aircraft separation. With this in mind, the
MAC shouid commit that any airport expansion identified in subsequent
MSP Comprehensive Ptans wiil be "noise-neutral", meaning that no new
noise impacts over residential areas will be generated off of the airport
property as a result of the future addition of new runways.
C
8) Also related to the MSP Comprehensive Plan, the MAC should establish
measurable criteria by which the performance of MSP is to be judged in
deciding whether or not airport expansion is warranted. These performance
criteria should be frequently and regularly reported to allow interested
parties to monitor the need to undertake the improvements described in the
Comprehensive Plan. � � � ��

Community Protection Concept Package
MSP Surrounding Communities
Background:
The Community Protection Concept Package is the product of more than a year of
discussion and planning by the Metropolitan Council, Metropolitan Airports
Commission, and the cities of Bloomington, Eagan, Mendota Heights, Minneapolis, and
Richfield. Met Council initiated the planning process as an unofFcial supplement to the
Dual Track Planning Process. A similar process was begun among Dakota County
parties. The collaborative cornmunity planning around MSP has produced a proposal that
recognizes the current and future airport-impacted environments, and offers solutions for
the potential impacts that are likely to be experienced.
There were two competing rationales driving the MSP collaborative, relative to the Dual
Track Planning Process. "The first scenario was that a mitigation package agreed upon by
all airport impacted parties would make it more palatable for legislators to keep the
airport at its present location, knowing that tools would be available to protect
communities from greater airport impacts. The second scenario envisioned approval of a
new airport, but one that probably would not be functional for 15-20 years or more. The
reality of such a scenario is that in the interim period MSP will continue to adversely
impact surrounding communities. It is vital that protections be implemented now to
avoid the potential disinvestment which is likely to occur.
Whichever rationale the reader subscribes to, the fact is that the concepts included in this
package represent proactive reinvestment now rather than reactive rehabilitation later --
which is more expensive and less likely to succeed.
Protection Conce�ts
The concepts that are included in the community protection package are a combination of
those which have proven successful in the MSP impacted communities and others from
around the country that have been similarly successful in achieving desired outcomes.
Concepts that would have merit in application are:
• Community Stabilization Techniques - Possible programs include property value
guarantees underwritten by the participating municipalities, tax credits for housing
revitalization in noise impact areas similar to recent Met Council incentives for
homeowners in declining neighborhoods, and acquisition of incompatible land use
prior to deterioration such as the New Ford Town and Rich Acres buyout.
�
Community Protection Concept Package
Executive Summary
Page 2
• Community Revitalization Approaches - Examples would be tailored t� increment
financing districts and community development banks, both of which would make it
easier for communities to revitalize or redevelop areas where necessary'. Tax
increment financing represents one of the few remaining tools for fully developed
cities to implement needed redevelopment, given the costs of such projects in an
environment of increasingly limited financial resources.
s Incentive Programs - Similar programs are often utilized as a trade-off for
developments and other land uses that provide more of a benefit for regional users
than is received by those directly impacted; e.g., recreation centers built as
compensation for large industrial devetopments.
• Airport Protection Measures - These would include local land use controls to prohibit
or control future developments that may be incompatible with airport impacted areas,
unless appropriate mitigation measures are taken.
Desired Outcome of Pro�osed Package
Much of what is included in the Comrnunity Protection Concepts Package would require
legislative approvai ancUor funding. Ideally, the package would be accepted completely �
and implemented to utilize as many of the programs possible. However; the planning
group recognizes that some of the proposals are more politically feasible than others and
a more realistic approach would be an incremental phase-in of those programs most likely
to show measurable results.
The best selling point for this package, when faced with the competing interests inherent
in the legislative process, is that this collaborative planning effort represents the best
progress ever made in remediating airport impacts.

' CONCEPT PACKAGE--DRAFT

INTRODUCTION
The Minneapolis/St. Paul (MSP) Airport is widely recognized as being one of the primary
economic assets and engines in Minnesota. Not only does it provide substantial direct
economic benefits in terms of jobs, but it is a key link for the state in an increasingly global
economy.
The state legislature is currently studying whether, if MSP is to remain a smoottily
functioning, modern and competitive facility, it should move to a new site in Dakota County
or remain at its current location and expand. A decision is expected sometime in 1997. It is
clear, however, that even if MSP moves to a new site, that move will not take place for up to
20 years given current capacity and projected demand.
While the airport obviously has many positive benefits for the region and state, it is also
O apparent that it has significant impacts on the communities around it. Noise impacts are
always the first issue that springs to mind, but in reality there are others of equal significance--
safety, ground traffic, fiscal/tax base impacts, environmental influences, and effects on
property values and overall community stability. Most airport-impact mitigation efforts focus
almost exclusively on noise--and the Metropolitan Airports Commission has established a good
track record with its noise insulation and property buyout programs. However, it is becoming
increasingly obvious that because of limited federal funding, the noise mitigation programs are
limited in their outreach. Moreover, if the airport is to be a good neighbor for at least the
nei�t twenty years, and the vitality of surrounding communities is to be maintained, these other
impacts need to be addressed. Simply buying property and tearing it down or insulating
eaisting houses closest to the airpc�t �s not enough. Airports are dynamic facitities, at least if
they are successfui. Operational requirements are constantly changing and new runways and
other facilities need to be added from time-to-time. Thus mitigation efforts at MSP must also
be dynamic, continually changing and being adapted to respond to changing airport impacts.
At the same time, steps need to be considered that will prevent any new incompatible
development around MSP that would hamper its eff'icient operation in the long term.
To tackle these issues, staff representatives of the Metropolitan Council and the Metropolitan
Airports Commission have been meeting informally since late 1994 with representatives of
local governments that are located in the vicinity of MSP. These include Bloomington, Eagan,
Mendota Heights, Minneapolis, and Rachfield. The group's primary goal has been to identify
and explore tools that can utilized to address MSP impacts and to enable communities in the
1
t
airport environs to take the initiative in dealing with them. ` In essence, . these discussions have
focused on how to make the airport a better neighbor and to ensure the continued vitaiity of (
surrounding neighborhoods and businesses. Recognizing that this effort. was a two-way street,
the. group also examined ways to. prevent new; incompatible development that. might adversely
affect the airport. . , . , . :
During 1995, the group has examined a wide range of tools and techniques and has developed a
mitigation package that the group recommends the legislature consider regardless of the decision
regarding location of MSP.2 This package includes several of the most promising approaches
identified over the course of six months of study and deliberation. It would require cooperative
action by the state and its agencies, the Metropolitan Council, MAC, and private sector
businesses:
• Community stabilization techniq�c such as property value guarantees, tax
credits for housing revitalization in noise impact areas, acquisition of incompatible
land use prior to deterioration.
• Community revitalization apnroaehes such as tailored tax increment financing
districts and community development banks. :
• Incentive programs similar to those commonly used in siting large facilities to
provide offsetting beneiits (such as neighborhood recreation centers) to a
. community or neighborhood. These would include incentives from �private firms (
(e.g., the airlines, car rental companies) as well as from public agencies. �
• Airp�protection measures such as improved local land use controls to ensure
that developments that are incompatible from a noise or safety perspective do not
occur in the airport environs unless mitigation measures are undertaken.
The group also examined the issue of where such tools and incentives might be made available.
While airpon impact mitigation programs often are confined to areas affected by a certain level
of noise (typically within the so-called 65 Ldn contour), the group believes a convincing case can
be made that the impact area should not be so narrawly deiined. When homes are demolished
within a 70 Ldn noise contour, the impact on the availability of affordable housing may be
significant throughout the entire community. Likewise, their may be a significant effect on a
communiry's tax base. Of course, airport expansion can have a range of other significant impacts
on a community, for example, major changes in traffic levels and patterns.
'A summary of the operating principles adopted by the group is aCtached to this document.
2The measures discussed by the group did not discuss changes in airport operations, such
as limitations on hours of operations and alterations of flight patterns; that may be necessary to �,
fully ameliorate adverse impacts.
Fa
Based on such considerations, the recommendation here is simple two-step screen to determine
which communities should be eligible to use the range of tools discussed in this memo. First,
only communities that have within their borders a 60 Ldn noise contour as defined by the MAC
would be eligible to participate. Second, to put reasonable limits on the geographic area within
which the tools might be employed, the group suggests they be available in neighborhoods within
one mile of the 60 Ldn contour as depicted on the attached map. The definition of the precise
boundary within these general parameters should be delegated by the legislature to the
Metropolitan Council to negotiate with each jurisdictions to ensure logical coverage of affected
neighborhoods.
SUMMARY OF MITIGATION TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES
Community Stabiliza�ion
Communities across Minnesota and the United States have used a variety of programs to help
stabilize and revitalize their neighborhoods and commercial areas. For example, in the airport
area the City of Richfield has undertaken an innovative housing development program to stabilize
neighborhoods around the airport. Similarly, the City of Minneapolis has utilized programs such
as the Family Housing Fund to renovate deteriorating housing. However, these programs are
limited in scope and do not address other key community stabilization issues.
Property Value Guarantees . . . . �
Where Iandowners anticipate that their properties will be adversely'affected by noise from airport
operations, they may perceive a threat to their property values. This perception may lead to a
pattern of flight from the neighborhood, thus lowering values, damaging the integrity of the area,
and rendering the area unstable and vulnerable to disinvestment and an influx of incompatible land
uses. Additionally, perceiving a potential loss in value of their most important investment, some
owners may strongly oppose any airport expansion that will affect them.
Experience in the Village of Oak Park, Illinois, a middle-class suburb of Chicago, demonstrates
that local governments can bolster confidence in an area of potential deterioratian by providing
guarantees against property value depreciation. Oak Park utilized a property value guarantee
program to stabilize a racially changing neighborhood. In brief, the program worked like this.
Owners of eligible single-family residences submitted an application to join the program with an
$90 application fee that covered the cost of an appraisal and administrative expenses: If after five
years the homeowner sold at a price lower than the original appraised value, he was entitled to
be reimbursed for 80% of the loss, assuming the house had been maintained adequately during
that period. If substantial improvements were made during that time, a reappraisal was possible.
Also, if the property could not be sold on the open market, then the owner was eligible to have
it purchased by a village-established Equity Assurance Commission.
Oak Park believes the program was successful in calming fears of property value loss. While over
160 homeowners initially joined, less than 60 properties remain in the program. Interestingly,
3
�
r
no claims were ever filed for reimbursement. Today, the village has successfully integrated and
remains a desirable residential community. (
Emulating this .concept, . local go.vernments around MSP should . be authorized to establish a
program :that pledges to, reimburse landowners for losses in property. value caused by airport
operations and impacts. Backup funding to cover any payouts might come from the state or the
Metropolitan Airports Commission. The local governments would pass through such
reimbursement upon the landowner's sale of property. The landowner might be asked to waive
any state relocation benefits as a quid pro quo for any equity reimbursement, the rationale being
that such reimbursement would make them whole and that the move was voluntary. Where
owners are unable to sell their properties, such programs might require local governments to
purchase the properties in fee simple at fair market value, again with backup funding from the
state or MAC. Participation would be. optional for all property owners within a designated
eligibility zone (such as a noise overlay zone). �
Preferential Ta�c Programs
To encourage citizens to continue to live in an area that is under some form of physical or social
stress or to move to such areas, states and local governments across the United States have
adopted a variety of. income and property tax credit programs. For example, the State of
Minnesota recently adopted an urban � homesteading program that �uthorizes the Metropolitan
Council to designate urban revitalization and stabilization zones that� are in transition to blight and '
ove An erson bu in or occu in a home within such a zone is eli ible for an exem tion �
�-P m'��Y P Y� g PY g g P
from Minnesota taxable income for up to five years (u to a limit of $15,000 for married
individuals fiIing a joint return) in specified circumstances�
�
Similarly, the 1995 Omnibus Tax Act provides special property tax benefits to encourage owners
of commercial and industrial businesses to locate within one-fourth mile of major transit stops.
The goal is to encourage job densiry around transit stops, thus making mass transit more feasible.
The state's enterprise zone legislation also provides property tax beneiits to businesses locating
in designated areas. (Amends Minn. Statutes Section 273.13, Subd. 24 and adds Minn. Statutes
Section 473.3915)
In the context of the airport area, such tax benefits might be geared towards trying to keep
existing residents in place. Thus a credit might be offered to all persons who have lived in a
designated impact area for a specified period and who continued to do so. If the person moved
out of the area within a certain time of claiming the credit, a portion of the tax credit might be
recaptured. .
�-Iousing Revitalization Programs
As noted above, several of the MSP-area communities have undertaken aggressive and innovative (
housing revitalization programs: However, where these efforts involve direct government action
0
1
as they do in Richfield to purchase deteriorating properties, they can be quite costly for local
�`, jurisdictions. Experience with programs like the "This Old House" rehabilitation tax credit
program in Minnesota, which provides a tax write-off for owners who make improvements to
homes over 35 years old (Minn. Statutes Section 462A.203, Housing Preservation Program), and
similar initiatives in other states demonsfrates that if individual homeowners can be enticed into
spending their own funds, government expenditure can be significantly leveraged. Interestingly,
in Minnesota half of the credits have been claimed by owners of homes with values less than
$85,000. Thus the state legislaiure should consider replicating such a rehabilitation tax credit
program for homes in designated airport-impact areas, tailoring it to be more effective by reducing
the age limitation Co fifteen years instead of thirty five and thereby encouraging renovation of a
wider range of housing.
In the same vein, experience demonstrates that private investment in housing can be greatly
encouraged with a modest r�duction in mortgage lending -rates, down payr�ent requirements,
reduction in closing costs and similar approaches that reduce initial investment and carrying costs
for prospective homeowners—especially first-time buyers. As applied to the airport area, special
lending programs embodying these concepts, in addition to those already in effect in other areas,
to encourage more aggressively first-time home buyers, thus helping to stabilize the airport-area
neighborhoods. .
Housing renovation revolving loan funds have likewise proyen to be useful tools in broader
community stabilization and housing preservation programs. :Typically, local governments create
low-interest loan rehabilitation loan funds for designated areas (e.g:, an historic district).
Homeowners in the district can borrow funds for�rehabilitation at below-market.interest rates, thus
encouraging investment of their private dollars. Payment can be made over a specified term or
upon sale of the home. Repaid funds are then recycled by making new loans. A similar program
is currently available in Minneapolis through MCDA--the Middle Income Housing Program. This
program is not limited to first-time homeowners; it makes loans available for housing
rehabilitation such as putting a new roof on a house.
Funding for such a program tailored for the airport area might come from a one-time
appropriation by the state legislature, an annual contribution by the MAC, issuance of revenue
bonds by MAC, noise impact fees on late-night flights, or a cambination of sources including
some forrn of local match.
Community Revitalization
Community revitalization programs are generally seen in areas that are past the stage of
"preventative medicine" such as the property value guarantee. Communities have generaily
discovered that there are no "silver bullets" when it comes ta revitalization, but rather success will
depend on utilization of a variety of programs to address problems such as lack of capital
investment funds. Again, MSP-area communities have some substantial experience with
commercial and residenfial revitalization programs, but more programs are needed to enable them
to deal more effectively and comprehensively with airport impacts.
�
�
Tax Increment Financing
r
�
L
Tax increment financing (TIE) districts have proven to be an effective community revitalization
Q
� tool� throughout the state. There are. currently five. general types of TIF districts, and the
�. municipalities surrounding �MSP �may qualify: to use. one or more .of these districts. Generally,
however., there are limitations imposed relating to percentage of substandard structures in an area,
purposes for which funds can be spent, the basis upon which the increment is calculated, and areas
within which funds can be expended that tend to limit the usefulness in dealin� with airport
impacts. With relatively modest tailoring, the airport area working group believes that TIF could
become a powerful tool to deal with a whole range of airport-impact issues.
These recommended changes include:
• Qualifications: Alter basic qualifying language so that, in addition to a specified
percentage of substandard housing, location within an airport impact zone would
trigger use of the district.
• Spending of increment: Permit the increment to be used for several purposes in
addition to the standard land acquisition, site improvements, etc. Other qualifying
expenditures might be noise insulation, rehabilitation loans, mortgage revenue
� . bonds,: community facilities, etc: � � -
e Geographic restrictions on spending: Allow expenditure of increment anywhere
,within broader project area, perhaps the entire airport =impact zone; � do not limit (�
just to district.
• Increment basis: Allow localities to write down increment basis to zero.
Addressing the associated reduction in local government aid is important to the
communities. One alternative would be to allow use of tax increment financing in
the qualifying communities without local government aid penalty. Another
alternative for consideration would be to spread the reduction over the seven
county region the reduction to reflect the regional importance of the airport and the
special burdens borne by airport-area communities that benefit others throughout
the regian.
• Inclusion of commercial airport property in districts: An increasing number of
airports around the United States are encouraging non-aviation related commercial
development on airport land, particularly in open buffer areas on the periphery of
an airfield. MAC should be specifically authorized to allow commercial use of
buffer properties for non-aviation commercial uses, and such properties should be
included in districts, the increment equivalent being paid into a fund to be used to
address airport impacts.

�
Community Development Bank
Availability of a steady flow of investment capital or low-interest loans is often a key ingredient
in the success of community revitalization programs: Experience shows that in blighted or
deteriorating areas, bank.lending and other traditional sources of renovation and revitalization
funding may dry up or conventional financing may not be su�cient to stimulate private
investment. To address this issue, several community development banks have sprung up that
might be emulated in the airport environs to deal with lack of private loan funds or low-interest
financing. �
One of the most successful of these community development banks--the South Shore Bank in
Chicago--is described more fully in the attached report. Using a combination of targeted
residential and commercial loans, strategic development projects, and education programs, it has
been responsible for revitalizing a neighborhood that had been written off by most observers In
most respects, this community development bank is no different than any local neighborhood
financial institution. Criteria for lending is the same used by other banks--credit worthiness of
the borrower, debt to loan ratio, and similar indicia. One important differ.ence, however, is that
a significant amount of the banks funds are in "development deposits"--deposits by institutions and
individuals located outside the South Shore area who want to see their money used for
neighborhood rehabilitation. As the bank's executive vice president has stated, "We are owned
by shareholders who wish to invest in profitable operations, but who are also interested in
economic development. "
� � , . ..,. :...,,.�<., . . .. ,- : .. . : , ;. :. :
Community de:velopment banks often make,rehabilitation funds available at below-market interest
rates or with extended payment schedules. This non-traditional financing is often the key to
�etting the revitalization ball rolling. Funds for such non-trad.itional programs come from a
��ariety of�sources--community development funds, Community Reinvestment Act programs, and
private sector contributions, to name only a few.
The idea of a community development bank for MSP-area communities is worthy of further
exploration. Whiie the indicia of distress and disinvestment are lower for these communities than
was true in South Shore, a community development bank may be able to help stem deterioration
in some residential areas and provi�e venture capital and rehabilitation funds in commercial areas,
particularly neighborhood commercial. Chartered by the state legislature, start-up capital for such
a bank might come from a combination of sources, including MAC, area goverrunents, and even
the state who could deposit funds therein. Area companies (particularly those associated with the
airport) could also assist by depositing funds and making program-related investments (which
typically must be paid back, but at very low rates of interest.)
�ommuni�v Incentive Programs
In the real estate development business nationally, it is an increasingly common practice to
,r � provide incentives and benefits to neighborhoods and comrnunities that are asked to bear the
��'� irnpacts or burdens associated with a large facility (e.g., a large industrial development or ski
0
L
resort). These might range from road improvements to ease potential traffic jams to set asides of
significant amounts of park land to offset loss of open space on-site or increased demand on local C
parks ,associated with.,an. .�influx of new� workers. : The types of other. incentives offered by
developers include;. , :. , . , . . .. . . . ; . , . . .
e Community and recreation centers;
• Contributions towards local police, �fre; and emergency medical
services/equipment;
s Planning assistance to help cope with anticipated impacts;
• Special rates for use of commercial facilities (e.g., discount tickets at a ski
resort).
In a general sense, these incentives and beneiits are intended to protect and possibly enhance the
quality of life in an area. in which a new development is� viewed as potentially compromising that
quality of life. They can also help take the "sting" out of having to live with a major
development.
In the context of the airport, an incentive/mitigation package might include, for example, funding
for additional indoor recreational. facilities. The logic would be that such facilities would help
"compensate" surrounding neighborhoods for:the. adverse impacts airport noise has on the use of
outdoor recreation sites. MAC has already taken some important steps in this direction by making
some of its land available for a public golf course that not only provides additional recreational
oppor[unities, but also provides:an important buffer for neighboring:Richfield. �
Private companies might also be enIisted in this effort. In many communities, airlines contribute
free or discount tickets to worthy community causes in airport environs. For example, to
encourage community involvement in planning for the redevelopment of Stapleton Airport in
Denver, Continental Airlines contributed airline tickets and lodging as prizes in a contest for
school-age children to suggest interesting uses for the site. The MSP communities feel that the
many companies and firms that are dependent on the air travel and cargo business and are more �
than willing to weigh in on the side of keeping the airport at its current location have an obligation
to assist in dealing with the adverse impacts of the airport as well. Noise insulation programs,
because of limited funding, do not even deal with the major adverse impact associated with the
airport, let alone the serious secondary effects discussed above.
.Airport Protection Measure
A recurring problem around most major airports throughout the United States is the continuing
construction of uses that are incompatible from either a noise or safety perspective. Several steps
have been taken in Minnesota to guard against this persistent problem. For exampie, the state has
enacted the Airport Zoning Act (Minn. Stat. sec. 360.061 et seq) that requires municipalities
within airport hazard areas to enact special protective regulations to prevent construction or
expansion of certain high density and other uses. Similarly, the Metropolitan Council, as part of
its regionai planning responsibilities, has promulgated model noise protection standards that are
:
�
to be incorparated into local comprehensive plans and regulations. Unfortunately, these
'� requirements have not worked in practice. The joint zoning board established around MSP
pursuant to the Airport Zoning Act is no longer active. And while a few airport-area
municipalities have adopted the Met Council noise standards, the majority have not (although most
have some noise protection/insulation standards for new construction).
If the airport is to continue to function in an efficient, safe manner, it is important that steps be
taken to make these processes more effective. To do so, the legislature should consider:
e Integrating the airport zoning ordinance safety requirements with the Met Council
noise standards to be administered by a revamped Airport Zoning Board.
• Putting "teeth" into the enforcement provisions of the Airport Zoning Act so that
local compliance is ensured. At the same time, the state legislature must address
the issue of compensation if local regulations prevent a proposed use and local
governments are threatened with "takings" litigation that may result in a damage
award against them.
� Requiring that local implementing regulations be performance based, that is, they
specify prefened result, but give local governments regulatory flexibility in
achieving a specified objective.
• Providing _ land .use . planning assistance to local governments so that they :can
comprehensively assess and plan areas subject to airport impacts.

Principles and Concepts of MSP Communities' ColIaborative Efforts �in
Airpori Planning
---,--._.
�
GOAL: Assuming that Minneapolis/St. Paul Airport (MSP) will continue to operate for
an undetermined length of time at its current location and possibly expand, the local governments
affected by airport operations are committed to maintairung themselves as healthy communities
from a social, fiscal, and quality of life perspecti�e. To that end, they have agreed on the
following principles and concepts to guide their cooperative planning efforts to redevelop the
airport area with the Metropolitan Council (Met Council) and .the Metropolitan Airports
Commission (MAC). This planning effort will include an identification of the impacts of MSP
operations on these surrounding communities, preparation of a community stabilization and
revitalization document, identification of sources of funding and agreement on a proposal for
inclusion in the Dual Track Process for mitigating the impacts of continued operations of the
airport at MSP. However, the community stabilization and revitalization measures available to
aiiport-area �ommunities should not be applied in such a way as to resuIt in undue burden to
individual residents of affected communities.
These cooper�tive pIanning efforts should not be inferpreted as supporting the retention of
riZSP ai its current location or moving it to Dakota County.
PRINCII'LES ANll CONCEFTS:
1. To enable communities to take the initiative in dealing with the adverse impacts related
to the airport, a range of "airport specific" redevelopment tools, to include new tools and
the broadening of existing tools, such as targeted tax-increment financing, should be
made available in the airport development area.
2. Airport development area boundaries established for the appl'acation or availability of
mitigation measures and tools must go beyond noise contours, because airport impacts
are varied and may affect a commuzuty in ather ways.
3. If expansion of MSP results in demolition or removal of buildings and uses and a
concomitant loss of tax base in adjoining communities, this loss must be compensated by
a lump sum payment or annual offsetting tax payments to local governments and school
districts.
4. When housing in a community is removed for airport purposes, fvnds should be provided
to the affected local governments to construct or rehabilitate equivalent housing elsewhere
- in that community if feasible.

5. The benefits of airport expansion, such as increased economic development and impact �-
�assistance, and the butdens of airport expansion, including impact on the environment
and quality of life, should be shared equitably among affected communities to the
maximum extent feasible.
6 Steps should be taken over time by each community in partnership with MAC and the
Met Council to create compatible zones around tl�e. airport. These zones should be
accomplished through a combination of acquisition, zoning, and redevelopment tools to
assure that the zones remain an integral, functional part of adjacent communities.
7. Steps should be taken by each community to identify and phase out over time existing
high-intensity uses in areas where existing uses preclude application of safety zone
development restrictions. Redevelopment tools should be made available to communities
to facilitate and expedite this process. No new schools, hospitals, and multi-family
housing should be built in these areas.
8. Airport development area coinmunities should tak� steps to ensure that all new and infill
development within the airport development area is compatible from a noise and safety
perspective. This should be. accomplished through the use of improved�building codes,
zoning regulations, and similar restrictions.
9. Steps should be taken to assure that existing as well as future community-wide
redevelopment pIans associated with airport development area impacts are integrated into �-
the community's overall plan. (to include the addition of community-wide amenities...)
10. The Met Council should take primary responsibility on behalf of and in cooperation with
affected airport development area communities to ensure that the above-listed principles
and concepts are fully considered in the dual-track process. These principles and
concepts should be reflected in the Metropolitan Council's Development Guide and the
Dual Track Decision Document.
Tax Treatment of Industrial/Commercial Uses on Airport Property
Note: The group has discussed whether the issue of tax treatment of industrial/commercial
businesses on airport property should be included in the mitigation package. Currently, industrial
and commercial property on MSP properiy is apparently no�subject to full local taxation (city and
school district taxes do not apply) nor to fiscal disparities treatment. It has been suggested that
this should be changed so that such property is taxed equally with non-airport property. Set forth
below is a first-cut discussion of this issue that needs to be reviewed by the group and discussed
further.
Privately owned commercial and industrial uses on airport property are currently not subject to
fiscal disparities treatment. � Furthermore, such uses pay county but not city or school taxes. As
a result, privately owned uses on airport property pay only about 25 % of the property taxes
compared to similar property off-airport. Given the fact that these private users have the
advantage of tax dQltars being used on the airport, as well as for essential government services
such as streets off-site, a strong argument can be made that they should bear a more equitable tax
�� - burden. Indeed, because surrounding jurisdictions bear a disproportionate .ir�pact from the
airport, the argument can be made that additional tax revenues from on-airport private businesses
could be used to fund several of the mitigation measures discussed above.
'Fiscal disparities is based on the theory that tax revenue from industrial and commercial
development--which is taxed at a much higher rate than residential development--should be
distributed to all jurisdictions in the region based on a formula that takes into account per capita
population and wealth rather than allowing the jurisdiction within which the development is
located to capture all of the tax revenue. .
