Village Santa Ana Specific Plan <br />August 15, 2025 <br />Page a <br />Response to Fact in Su ort " 1" - Regarding Overflight: <br />The June 19, 2025, ALUC staff report included flight tracks in relation to the project site on <br />three separate days in March of 2025. The ALUC recommends that the maximum structure <br />heights, including all rooftop equipment and/or architectural details, be reduced to below 206 <br />feet AMSL, in order to protect the airspace reserved for air navigation. <br />Response to Fact in Support " " - Regarding Heliports: <br />As the City states, heliports were not included as part of this project, therefore heliports were <br />not reviewed by ALUC. <br />Response to Fact in Support "h" - Regarding Zone Change: <br />Finding "h" summarizes Findings "a" through "g" and refers to flight tracks and the project <br />being located outside the 60 dBA CNEL noise contour. The inconsistent finding by ALUC was <br />not based on flight tracks and noise contours but was based on the fact that the proposed Village <br />Santa Ana Specific Plan would allow buildings to penetrate the Part 77 Horizontal Surface for <br />JWA and enter airspace reserved for air navigation. <br />We urge the City Council to take ALUC's concerns into consideration in its deliberations prior <br />to deciding whether to overrule ALUC. Thank you for the opportunity to provide these <br />comments. <br />Sincerely, <br />Stephen Beverburg <br />Vice -Chairman <br />Attachment: Santa Ana NOI to Overrule ALUC letter dated July 16, 2025 <br />cc: Members of the Airport Land Use Commission for Orange County <br />Vincent Ray, Caltrans/Division of Aeronautics <br />
