Highline Forum Agenda and Draft Minutes: May 23, 2012 and March 28, 2012

The Highline Forum, a community advisory group connecting the Port of Seattle with nearby cities including Burien, SeaTac, and Des Moines, held meetings in early 2012 to discuss Sea-Tac Airport-related issues including noise abatement procedures, the Port's Century Agenda economic development goals, and a cleanup update for the Lora Lake contamination site. The May 23, 2012 agenda featured a dedicated session on noise abatement procedures presented by Port of Seattle Noise Programs representative Stan Shepherd, alongside discussions on refining the Forum's structure and Highline Public Schools' Capital Facilities Plan. Draft minutes from the March 28, 2012 meeting document community leaders raising concerns about job quality, regional transportation infrastructure, and tourism development in the Southwest King County area surrounding the airport.
