Re: PZ22-03-12; Desert Truss (APN: a portion of 509-18-968D)    
 
Dear Mr. Macias 
 
Thank you for the opportunity to provide comments on the Pre-Application for the Desert Truss 
development. This application proposes the development of a wooden truss-manufacturing complex on 
approximately 20 acres and is part of the Copperwing Logistics Park.  The proposed buildings will be less 
than 25 feet in height and located at 10100 N. Dysart Rd. in El Mirage, AZ.  The parcel is located inside 
the Luke AFB 1988 JLUS 70 and 75 DNL “high noise or accident potential zone” as identified by    
A.R.S. § 28-8461. 
 
Luke AFB utilizes A.R.S. § 28-8481 when evaluating compatible land use within the “territory in 
the vicinity of a military airport”.  Subject to the results of an FAA Obstruction Analysis Evaluation; this 
request, as described in the narrative, will not negatively impact the flying operations at Luke AFB.  If 
this development is approved, 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 would be 
essential to inform potential occupants about Luke AFB operations.     
 
If you have any questions, please contact my Community Planner, Mr. Mark James at  
(623) 856-9981.  
      
 
 
 
 
 
 
             Sincerely
