    Port Of Seattle airport neighbor community accords [proposed]

    The Port of Seattle Airport Neighbor Community Accords (proposed November 2018) is a citizen-drafted proposal calling on the Port of Seattle to prioritize the health and well-being of communities surrounding Sea-Tac International Airport. It argues that these neighborhoods bear an unfair burden from aircraft noise and environmental impacts without adequate compensation, and that the Port's 2018 bylaw changes weakened its commitments to quality of life, environmental stewardship, and community collaboration. The document outlines six specific accords, including demands for independent audits of mitigation spending, a nighttime curfew, prioritization of tax levy funds for community mitigation, and reduced use of the 3rd runway until mitigation goals are met.

As the source for federal transportation grants, the Puget Sound Regional Council was charged with developing a system to meet the growing need for commercial aviation. When the search for a second airport failed, they authorized the Port of Seattle to build the Third Runway, with a mandate to develop a noise abatement and mitigation program. In their effort to stop the Third Runway, the ACC argued over every detail of the Port's efforts--including property buyouts and sound insulation. The dispute was meant to be settled by a three member Expert Arbitration Panel. This is their final report. It finds 2-1, that the Port's program was insufficient in several respects. Despite that, funding for the Third Runway was approved by the PSRC, and the 'Port Package' program, proceeded largely unchanged. Expert Arbitration Panel's final decision finding that the Port of Seattle had not shown sufficient reduction in real on-the-ground noise impacts to satisfy noise reduction conditions required for approval of a third runway at Sea-Tac International Airport. The majority decision concluded the Port's noise abatement programs were insufficient despite being impressive in scope.
