These are the meeting minutes from a March 23, 1982 Policy Advisory Committee session at Sea-Tac International Airport, focused on updating the Sea-Tac/Communities Plan Noise Remedy Program. The committee discussed how to engage affected residents between South 128th and South 135th Streets through direct mailings and community outreach, debated whether to address noise impact areas individually or as a whole, and reviewed the status of ongoing housing acquisitions, with the Port having already spent $28–$29 million on housing acquisition and relocation. Key concerns included funding limitations, construction in potential acquisition zones, hardship cases for vulnerable residents, and the timeline for completing the program.
