Resolution A-93-03 adopted by the Puget Sound Regional Council General Assembly on April 29, 1993, amending the 1988 Interim Regional Airport System Plan (RASP) for long-term commercial air transportation capacity needs of the central Puget Sound region (King, Kitsap, Pierce, Snohomish counties).

A 1993 confidential legal memorandum from law firm Cutler & Stanfield to the Airport Communities Coalition (ACC) outlines strategies for opposing the planned third runway expansion at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. The memo recommends that the ACC Cities prioritize preventing new runway construction as their primary goal, with secondary goals focused on reducing noise impacts, limiting night flights, and improving mitigation for affected residents. The overarching strategy was to build enough political and legal leverage so that airport expansion decisions could not practically move forward without the ACC Cities' participation.

This April 1993 confidential legal report, prepared by law firm Cutler & Stanfield for the Airport Communities Coalition, examines the legal issues surrounding the proposed expansion of Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, including the construction of a third runway. It reviews the powers and responsibilities of key governmental entities — including the FAA, the Port of Seattle, the Puget Sound Regional Council, and surrounding cities — in relation to airport planning, noise abatement, and environmental impacts. The report also assesses geographic and environmental conditions in the SEA area, covering noise-sensitive locations, wetlands, air quality, and other factors relevant to community opposition to the expansion.
