MEMORANDUM
Airport - Memo No. 22-003
Date:
January 12, 2022
To:
Chandler Airport Commission
From:
Airport Planning Administrator
Subject:
Airport Conflict Evaluation
Midway- Germann and Hamilton
North of the Northeast Corner Germann Road and Hamilton Street
Recommendation
Staff recommends the Airport Commission ("Commission") present an Airport Conflict
Evaluation (ACE) report to the Zoning Administrator and City Council with a finding of "no
conflict with airport uses" for the proposed Midway- Germann and Hamilton development.
Background
The approximately 18.30 +/- net acre site is located north of the northeast corner of
Germann Road and Hamilton Street (Exhibit A - Vicinity Map, Exhibit B - Property Location)
and is zoned Planned Area Development (PAD). Adjacent land uses include industrial uses
under County jurisdiction to the north and west; industrial uses to the east; and
Tumbleweed Park to the south.
The site is approximately 1 mile to the northwest of the Airport and is not located within of
the 55ldn noise contour (Exhibit A- Vicinity Map, Exhibit B- Property Location).
The proposed project is three light industrial buildings totaling approximately 302,000
square feet (SF) (Exhibit C - Site Plan).
The City of Chandler General Plan designates the property for Employment. The 2021
Chandler Airpark Area Plan (CAAP) designates the property Innovation District (Exhibit D –
Chandler Airpark Area Plan Land Use Plan).
Analysis
The proposed development is consistent with the CAAP. Commercial and industrial land
uses are generally compatible with airport operations. The property will experience daily
overflights from aircraft in the normal traffic pattern (Exhibit E – Flight Tracks).
Based on the maximum allowable building heights, the proposed development does not
appear to pose a hazard to flight safety or be an airspace obstruction. The proposed
building height does not appear to impact the approach and departure surfaces for either
runway. Final building structures, including all rooftop objects, must not impact the approach
and departure surfaces for the Airport’s runways.
The proposed project does not indicate the use of rooftop solar panels. If solar panels are
anticipated to be installed, the owner/applicant must complete a solar study and
coordinate with Airport Administration to ensure that glare will not interfere with aircraft
on approach or takeoff.
Due to the site’s proximity to the Airport, the developer must file a Notice of Proposed
Construction (FAA Form 7460-1) with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for (1) the
final structure heights, including all rooftop antennas, parapets, light poles, and other
equipment and (2) temporary construction equipment. The form may be submitted online
at https://oeaaa.faa.gov/oeaaa/external/portal.jsp. The FAA-assigned numbers for all
evaluation cases should be provided to Airport Administration.
The proposed project’s building design does not appear to create reflectivity issues with
aircraft in the traffic pattern (Exhibit F – Building Elevations). The use of non-reflective
glazing and non-reflective paint is encouraged.
Findings
No Conflict
__ Low Conflict
__ Moderate Conflict
__ High Conflict
Specific Area(s) of Conflict: Not applicable.
Recommended Corrective Actions: Not applicable.
Public Notice/Meetings
No neighborhood meeting was held due to the absence of residential units within 600 feet
of the site; however, a notice to neighbors was transmitted.
Proposed Motion
Move to present an Airport Conflict Evaluation (ACE) report to the Zoning Administrator
and City Council with a finding of "no conflict with airport uses" for the proposed Midway-
Germann and Hamilton development.
