Sustainable Airport Master Plan Near-Term Projects: Land Use Technical Report

This Land Use Technical Report, prepared by Landrum & Brown for the Port of Seattle in January 2024, examines how near-term construction projects outlined in the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport Sustainable Airport Master Plan align with existing and planned land use regulations in surrounding communities. The report reviews local plans from cities including SeaTac, Des Moines, Burien, and Tukwila, as well as a 2018 Interlocal Agreement between the Port and the City of SeaTac, to assess potential land use impacts of the proposed airport expansion alternatives. It concludes by evaluating the consistency of the proposed action and a hybrid terminal option with applicable local and regional planning policies.
