Hi Jose,
Thank you for allowing Luke AFB to make comments on the S2021017 – Notification Application.
This re-plat application is for resolution for abandonment of (2) 5 ft wide public utilities easements
on two parcels. The site is located in Rancho Estates Unit 3 Lots 21 and 22 in Maricopa County, AZ.
It is approximately .6 miles outside the Luke AFB 1988 JLUS 65 Ldn, “high noise or accident potential
zone” as defined by A.R.S. § 28-8461 and is inside the “territory in the vicinity of a military airport”
also defined by A.R.S. § 28-8461.
As described in the application, this request will not have a negative impact on Luke AFB Flight
Operations. Since the site will be located inside the “territory in the vicinity of a military airport,” it
will be subjected to approximately 165 over flights per day, as low as 1,500 feet above the ground.
We recommend you review the sound attenuation requirements found in A.R.S. § 28-8482. In
addition, a strong notification program on the part of the applicant is essential to inform the tenant
about Luke AFB operations.
Respectfully,
Mark
