ARS 28-8481 Military Land Use Compatibility 
15. The site is situated outside the Noise Contour Zone of Luke Air Force Base (LAFB), 
meaning it is not required to follow the base's land use compatibility guidelines. 
However, it is located within the Military Airport Territory Area. As a result, the 
development will experience approximately 170 direct overflights each day. 
 
Miscellaneous 
16. It shall be prohibited to disturb the peace or quiet of a neighborhood, family, or person by 
making or emitting unreasonable noise. Noise that exceeds 55 decibels, measured at the 
property line of the source, between 10:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. is presumed unreasonable.
