Mutual Help List, Questions about Avigation Easements - follow-up

["Schwartz, Jason" <Jason.Schwartz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Good afternoon:

I believe PDX has paid for easements, although I am new to the office so
will forward your question to our Noise Planner who is more familiar
with the program.  Additionally, my previous employer St.
Petersburg-Clearwater Int'l Airport (PIE) has paid for easements.   I do
not know the exactly amount but I believe it was minimal (~$10).  This
was required by the County in order to approve developer's plans to
build.

Subject: CAA: Mutual Help List, Questions about Avigation Easements -
follow-up


Everyone -

We're in the process of carrying out a Part 150 study's recommendation.
One of the recommendations was to purchase avigation easements from the
effected homeowners.

The question has been put to me by the City Manager as to what other
airports have paid for avigation easements.  I realize the true answer
to
this question is "it depends on the valuation of the property".
However,
for budgeting and discussion purposes, what have other airports paid?

Also, I've been asked on what variables other airports used in the
valuation.  We are going to get an avigation easement appraiser to do
the
actual valuations - but we need information to take to City Council
before
we move forward.

Thanks for your help,

Thanks for your help,
