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

This January 2024 Land Use Technical Report, prepared by Landrum & Brown for the Port of Seattle, examines how near-term construction projects at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport align with local and regional land use plans. It reviews existing and planned land uses in surrounding cities—including SeaTac, Des Moines, Burien, and Tukwila—and evaluates the potential land use impacts of proposed action alternatives. The report draws on key planning documents such as a 2018 Interlocal Agreement and the Puget Sound Regional Council's Vision 2050 to assess consistency with community goals.
