Re:  PA24-04-02; PEM Fitness Building Addition (APN: 501-85-927) 
        
Dear Mr. Macias 
 
 
Thank you for allowing Luke AFB to make comments on the PEM Fitness Building Addition 
pre-application.  This proposal requests the addition of 2,160 SF to an existing 4,493 SF building.  The 
building use is for a fitness center and snack bar as well as modernizing the existing facility.  The site is 
located at 11201 N. El Mirage Road in El Mirage, AZ and is inside the Luke AFB 1988 JLUS 70 DNL, 
“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.   
 
 
Luke AFB follows A.R.S. § 28-8481 when evaluating compatible land use within the “territory in 
the vicinity of a military airport.  This request, as described in the narrative, will not negatively impact the 
flying and base operations at Luke AFB.  Since the development will be located within the “territory in 
the vicinity of a military airport,” it will be subjected to approximately 170 over flights a day.  We 
recommend you review 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 potential occupants about Luke 
AFB operations. 
 
  
 
If there are any questions, please contact Senior Planner, Ms. Jenn Rahn at (623) 856-9981. 
 
 
  
 
 
               
 
  
 
 
 
 Sincerely 
 
  
 
 
   
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
  
 
 
              CHRISTOPHER P. TOALE
