2022-11-29Your 2¢ Worth Meeting #5: Decision Maker Workshop Comments
Notes from a 1973 community meeting series capture residents near Sea-Tac Airport expressing frustration over airport noise, inadequate government responsiveness, and the handling of Zone 3 acquisition areas. Participants from neighborhoods including Riverton Heights, Valley View, Shorewood, and Des Moines called for fair property tax relief, equitable land acquisition at market value, and better coordination among King County, the Port of Seattle, and state legislators. The document reflects widespread public distrust of the planning process and demands for more transparent, community-informed decision-making on airport expansion and noise impacts. -

2022-10-07Airport Noise Report, Vol. 34 No. 33: Port Of Seattle sued over public health study records; AICA urges REDAC to support six noise research proposals; Eviation Alice first flight
A Seattle attorney sued the Port of Seattle in September 2022 to force disclosure of a fully redacted consultant report examining public health impacts—including noise, air pollution, and higher rates of disease—on communities within 10 miles of Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Separately, the Aviation-Impacted Communities Alliance urged a federal advisory committee to support six research proposals challenging the FAA's longstanding 65 DNL noise threshold, which new survey data suggests dramatically understates the number of people harmed by aircraft noise. The issue also covers the first successful test flight of Eviation's all-electric nine-passenger Alice aircraft in Moses Lake, Washington. -
2022-10-02Seattle Tacoma International Airport Exhibit ‘A’ property acquisition data table
This document is a detailed property acquisition data table for Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, compiled by the Port of Seattle in October 2022. It records every parcel of land acquired for airport development, including the original owners, dates of transfer, acreage, type of deed, and federal grant programs—such as the Federal-Aid Airport Program (FAAP) and Airport Development Aid Program (ADAP)—that funded each purchase. The table serves as an official legal and historical record of how the airport's property holdings were assembled over decades, primarily from the 1950s through the 1960s.
