This map covers the Des Moines and SeaTac area in Washington State, showing residential streets, major roads including SR 99, SR 509, SR 516, and Interstate 5, along with several schools such as Mt. Rainier High School, Pacific Middle School, Midway Elementary, Des Moines Elementary, and St. Philomena School. A purple diagonal corridor crosses the map, likely representing a flight path or noise contour zone associated with Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, while an orange boundary outlines a specific study or impact area in the southern portion of the map. The document appears to be part of an airport noise or land-use planning study examining how SeaTac flight operations affect surrounding communities.

This aerial map depicts the area surrounding Sea-Tac Airport, covering portions of Burien, Tukwila, and unincorporated King County in Washington State. It highlights key landmarks including Southern Heights Elementary School, Hilltop Elementary School, Rainier Golf and Country Club, and Glen Acres Country Club, along with major roadways such as SR 99, SR 599, and Des Moines Memorial Drive S. A purple corridor overlay traces what appears to be a noise-impact or flight-path study boundary through residential neighborhoods near the airport.

In this April 26, 1983 letter to the Port of Seattle Commissioners, resident Virginia E. Dare urges the commission to honor its commitment to 'maximum compatibility' between Sea-Tac Airport and surrounding neighborhoods, as originally promised under the Sea-Tac Community Plan (STCP) launched in 1972. The letter emphasizes that community members were guaranteed a direct, ongoing role in planning decisions—including noise mitigation, land acquisition, and density guidelines—through a formal Community Involvement Program. The author calls on commissioners to uphold that process as they enter a new noise remedy program update that will reassess FAA density guidelines affecting nearby residents.

This March 1983 document outlines the proposed role and restructured composition of the Policy Advisory Committee (PAC), a body formed to serve as a communication link between Sea-Tac International Airport and its surrounding communities. It defines five key responsibilities for PAC, including monitoring the Sea-Tac/Communities Plan, addressing airport-related issues, and making recommendations to King County and Port of Seattle officials. The document also proposes reforms to membership selection, including three-year terms, formal application procedures, public notification requirements, and geographically based citizen representation.

A 1983 Times-News article reports that complaints about the Highline Community Council's informal and inconsistent process for appointing citizen representatives to the Policy Advisory Committee (PAC) — the body overseeing Sea-Tac airport development and noise policy — may force a reform of the selection method. Critics argued that appointees often lacked knowledge of the PAC's purpose and that residents most affected by airport noise were being excluded. A six-member sub-committee was formed to investigate the current process and recommend alternatives.
