Technical guidance on compatibility
ISSUE
COM‐3
Local jurisdictions need clearer input from the Air Force
regarding planning and development decisions and
whether they are compatible with Travis AFB and its
missions.
Compatibility Assessment
When surrounding communities reach out to Travis AFB, the Base tends not
to directly oppose or support development in the communities outside of
the Base. The Base works to maintain a neutral position to not directly
interfere in local decision making. Local jurisdictions may seek out an
opinion from Travis AFB for planning and development decisions, in addition
to the review by the ALUC, to determine compatibility. However, while
five members of the ALUC must have aviation expertise, there are no
representatives from Travis AFB involved in the review.
Findings
Local jurisdictions do not have clear processes to get technical input
on development proposals.
The ALUC does not have representatives from Travis AFB involved in
the review of land use development proposals that may impact the
Base.
