This document outlines the official significance and structure of a comprehensive land use and community planning report for Sea-Tac International Airport and its surrounding communities, jointly produced by the Port of Seattle and King County. It serves as the primary guide for official decisions on land use, capital expenditures, and public and private development review. The report is organized into eight parts covering plans, policies, programs, background information, and implementation strategies.

The Sea-Tac Communities Plan, sponsored by the Port of Seattle and King County, maps the West Reinforcement Area surrounding Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, identifying neighborhoods such as Hazel Valley, Chelsea, Seahurst, Gregory Heights, Sunny Terrace, and Blakley Manor that are affected by aircraft noise. The map highlights the Burien Center commercial core, grid cells where program eligibility is determined by noise criteria alone, and features such as streams, ponds, and heavy vegetation. It distinguishes between single-family residential structures and other buildings to guide noise mitigation and land-use planning efforts in the impacted communities.

This June 2022 report, prepared by Anchor QEA for the Port of Seattle, provides a comprehensive inventory of the 55-acre parcel within North SeaTac Park located near Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. It covers the parcel's development history, cultural context, land use, environmental conditions (including soil, air quality, water, plants, and wildlife), noise levels, recreation, transportation, and utilities. The inventory serves as a baseline reference to inform future planning and policy decisions for this airport-adjacent public land.
