RE: DP18-0250 Skyline Labs / 1st Submittal, Received October 12, 2018

Dear Ms. Hines,

Thank you for the opportunity to comment on DP18-0250, Skyline Labs; 1st Submittal, a development package application for an approximately 3.4 acre site, located west of the intersection of East Science Park Drive and South Kolb Road. The property is zoned Industrial 2 (I-2) and the proposed development is a new research and development facility.

This site is within the Tucson International Airport avigation easement requirements and public disclosure area, FAA traffic pattern airspace, and FAA Part 77 airspace.

The Tucson Airport Authority conditionally approves the subject request contingent upon the following condition of approval, as noted below. This condition shall be identified in the general notes of the revised development plan.

Condition of approval:

1. "According to the FAA Notice Criteria Tool, this project is located in proximity to a navigation facility and could impact navigation signal reception. The applicant shall file Form 7460 with the FAA at least 45 days before construction activities begin for the project. It is highly recommended that the applicant file earlier than 45 days to provide the applicant with sufficient time to respond to any concerns which are identified by the FAA. Any cranes used which are used must also be identified with Form 7460. Please file Form 7460 at https://oeaaa.faa.gov/oeaaa/external/portal.jsp"

Although this project does not propose a change in plan designation or zoning the Tucson Airport Authority highly recommends the City of Tucson consider requiring the applicant to add the following note into the general notes of the revised development plans. This project is located approximately 4 ¾ miles northeast of Tucson International Airport and is within FAA traffic pattern airspace, an area which would be subject to aircraft overflight and noise due to being in close proximity to Tucson International Airport.

The proposed note would provide a means of assuring that future owners and tenants of the property are aware they are near an airport and further assures the continued right of the City of Tucson, Tucson Airport Authority, and all persons lawfully utilizing the Tucson International Airport the right to utilize the airspace above or near the property. This would be accomplished through requiring the property owner to record the Avigation Easement. The Tucson Airport Authority believes this proposed note help to support the City of Tucson Airport Environs Overlay Zone and supports Plan Tucson - Regional and Global Positioning policy 4 (RG-4).

1. "That prior to the City's approval of any construction permit for a permanent building, the property owner shall record the Avigation Easement which discloses the existence, and operational characteristics of the Tucson International Airport to future owners or tenants of the property and further conveys the right to the public to lawfully use the airspace above the property. The Avigation Easement shall be recorded in a manner with the Pima County recorder which shall document it as having title liability. The content of such documents shall be according to the form and instructions provided."

The current property owner or person authorized to sign on behalf of the current property owner shall complete, sign, and record the Avigation Easement. Please record the Avigation Easement with the Pima County Recorder's Office. Once the Avigation Easement is recorded please send a complete copy of the recorded easement document to Tucson Airport Authority by either email (send to srobidoux@flytucson.com) or to the mailing address provided below.
