Airport Dual Track Plannng Site Selection Process UpdateCITY OF ROSEMOUNT EXECUTIVE SQ5D[ARY FOR ACTION CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE:November 17,1992 AGENDA ITEM:Airport Dual Track Planning Site Selection Process Update AGMA SECTION: Department Heads Report PREPARED BY: Stephan Jilk AGmw# 3C ATTACMdENTS: Site Selection Options APOVED BYE: I would like to provide updates on this process sincd there Are issues which I feel warrant discussion now rather waiting until the regularly scheduled first meeting of the month. I)Site Selection On Tuesday, November 10, the Site Selection Technical Advisory Committee of the Metropolitan Airports Commission met to review the progress of the new airport site selection process. The committee reviewed the seven remaining new airport sites in the Dakota County search area. These seven sites remain from the original posiible twenty sites selected by the Committee at previous work sessions. The original twenty sites were selected based upon physical constraints of the search area and shear size needed for anew airport. Thirteen of the sites were then eliminated after applying the site selection criteria. With the selection of these final seven it is very obvoius that there are visually two distinct options for the location of a new airport, Northwest of the Vermillion River and Southeast of the Vermillion. River. These basic two options would then allow for minimul opprtunity to vary the actual site location in those two major geographical areas and cause more or less problems for Rosemount or Hastings depending on where in the search area the actual site is picked. Enclosed is a copy of the seven remaining sites to be considered. I would like to spend a few minutes to review these with you on Tuesday. II)Site Selection Criteria The criteria to be used to make the final site selection and which will be used to determine cost basis for choosing the final site are yet to be finalized and accepted. There has been formed a new Site Selection Policy Committee. The purpose of this committee is to allow additional public input on the process being followed in site selection and the criteria being used. The prposed site selection criteria will be reveiwed by the new committee and then on December 15th, 1992 there will be a public hearing on the revised criteria before they are formally adopted for use. This public hearing will be held at the Rosemount High School. I will have additonal comments on the revised criteria at the meeting on Tuesday.
