The North Sea-Tac Park Master Plan Update is a joint planning document produced by King County and the Port of Seattle, prepared by Triangle Associates/Jones & Jones. It outlines recommended updates to the master plan for North Sea-Tac Park, including a phased development program and alternative implementation strategies. The plan reflects a collaborative effort to guide the park's future development in the area surrounding Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.

Resolution No. 3257 of the Port of Seattle Commission establishes the Mobile Home Airport Compatibility Program, which provides financial assistance of up to $12,000 per mobile home to help relocate residents from mobile home parks near Seattle-Tacoma International Airport that are being converted to airport-compatible land uses. Park owners who participate must grant an avigation easement to the Port, restrict future property use to airport-compatible purposes, and ensure residents receive an approved relocation plan. The program was created to implement Measure M2d of the 1993 FAR Part 150 Noise Remedy Program amendments, approved by the FAA in May 1994.

Resolution No. 3401 is a Port of Seattle Commission decision addressing aircraft noise reduction at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (Sea-Tac). It requests that the FAA study the feasibility of routing more northbound departures through the Duwamish/Elliott Bay Corridor to reduce noise over residential neighborhoods, while also directing Port staff to explore increased nighttime use of the Commencement Bay flight track in coordination with Pierce County. The resolution follows a public review process involving Citizen and Technical Advisory Committees, which evaluated six alternative flight track options against a core criterion of improving overall noise conditions without simply shifting the burden from one community to another.

Resolution No. 3016 from the Port Commission of the Port of Seattle adopts a recommendation to launch Phase III of a citizen participation process aimed at addressing aircraft noise issues at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. The resolution focuses on finding workable ways to prevent noise levels from growing as air traffic increases, including encouraging airlines to upgrade to quieter aircraft and exploring economic tools such as differential landing fees. It also establishes a broadly representative committee and calls for a neutral convener to guide the process toward consensus-based noise abatement solutions.

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) for Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (Sea-Tac Airport), published by Port Of Seattle in December 2022, in accordance with NPDES Permit No. WA-0024651.

This draft planning document outlines west sub-area policies near Sea-Tac Airport, addressing noise impact reduction, environmental concerns, and land use transitions. Key provisions include halting mass property acquisition for noise mitigation, installing sanitary sewers near Miller Creek, controlling stormwater runoff from new airport development, and planting shade trees along local waterways. The document also proposes orderly conversion of single-family residential areas to higher-intensity uses, coordinated with the construction of S.R. 509 as a western boundary for redevelopment.

This document records community feedback from Meeting #6 of a public engagement series on alternative futures for neighborhoods near Sea-Tac Airport, where residents from Valley View, Riverton Heights, Des Moines, and other areas discussed three options: creating greenbelts and open spaces, pursuing a planned city renewal approach, or allowing an unrestricted free market. Participants raised concerns about airport noise, property taxes, displacement of residents, loss of natural resources, and the Port of Seattle's land acquisition practices. Communities generally favored enforceable planning with citizen input, and many preferred the greenbelt option, while expressing skepticism about government-led redevelopment and unregulated market approaches.
