PROPOSED OCTOBER 8, 2024 INTRODUCTION The Port of Seattle is deeply committed to ensuring the long-term sustainability of the lands, waters, and wildlife in the Puget Sound region as well as the quality of life for local residents. In particular, the Port Commission sees North SeaTac Park as an important natural asset for the environment, for recreation, and for community use. To that end, the Port partnered with the Washington Congressional delegation to successfully advocate for the inclusion of language in the 2024 Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Reauthorization Act to allow for “community use of airport land.” Section 706 of the legislation specifically allows the Port to “permanently restrict the use of airport property to compatible recreational and public park use” provided that it meets certain criteria. To utilize the flexibility provided by this new federal legislation, the airport must provide the FAA with written certification that the property meets the requirements laid out in the legislation. As such, the Commission directs the Executive Director to undertake the process described in Section 706 with the goal of ensuring [retaining] North SeaTac Park remains a [as] community asset [permanently].
