COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: August 30, 2022
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Planning Division, Community Development Department SUBJECT: Amendment To Santa Barbara City Agreement No. 26,997 Opticos Design, Inc., In The Amount Of $19,745 To Expand The Scope Of Objective Design Standards To Include R2 Zone Properties [Resolution; Contract]
RECOMMENDATION: That Council:
A. Authorize the Community Development Director to execute a first amendment to increase the amount of City Agreement No. 26,997 with Opticos Design, Inc., in the amount of $19,745 to provide objective design standards for certain housing projects on R2-zoned properties and to provide formatting consistent with SBMC Title 30; and
B. Adopt, by reading of title only, a Resolution of the Council of the City of Santa Barbara Amending Resolution 22-059, adopting the Budget for Fiscal Year 2023, for $19,745.
DISCUSSION:
The City was awarded a Local Early Action Planning (LEAP) grant from the State Housing and Community Development Department to develop multi-unit housing objective design standards (Santa Barbara Design Standards). The Santa Barbara Design Standards will apply citywide and will provide standards for multi-unit housing projects that allow for various architectural styles and address other design elements (e.g., building form and landscaping).
In addition to better facilitating multi-unit housing production, the goals of the Santa Barbara Design Standards project are to:
Provide clear guidance and predictable design expectations to project applicants, interested parties, and decision makers;
Ensure new multi-unit housing development is designed to be sensitive to and Agenda Item No. 7
File Code No. 610.05
Council Agenda Report
Amendment To Santa Barbara City Agreement No. 26,997 Opticos Design, Inc., In The Amount Of $19,745 To Expand The Scope Of Objective Design Standards To Include R2 Zone Properties [Resolution; Contract]

compatible with existing adjacent emblematic architecture, historic resources, streetscapes, and neighborhoods; and
Use an open and inclusive public process to draft design standards for the City’s diverse multi-unit neighborhoods.
The City and Opticos Design, Inc. entered into an agreement on July 20, 2021, for consulting services to prepare objective design standards for multi-unit housing projects in areas of the City that allow three or more units. A work group consisting of members of the Historic Landmarks Commission, Architectural Board of Review, Planning Commission, and American Institute of Architects has been assisting with the effort. The work group has reviewed and discussed an existing conditions memo and provided guidance on architectural styles. The work group would reconvene this fall to review draft standards. Public hearings on the standards are expected spring-summer 2023.
Because state law provisions for review of housing projects using objective design standards apply to projects of fewer than three units, the contract amendment would expand the scope of the effort to include objective design standards for R21 zoned properties. The City also requested the consultant to provide formatting consistent with SBMC Title 30. This additional work would be funded through a combination of grant funds from the Local Early Action Planning (LEAP) grant and the Regional Early Action Planning (REAP) grant. The City was awarded both grants through the State Housing and Community Development Department. The REAP grant is also being used to fund Housing Element-related work.
BUDGET/FINANCIAL INFORMATION:
This Amendment increases the total compensation of the Original Agreement for all services by $19,745, for a new not-to-exceed dollar amount of $304,745.
On June 9, 2020, City Council adopted a resolution authorizing application for and receipt of $300,000 to prepare Objective Design Standards for Multi-Unit Housing through the Local Government Planning Support Grant Program administered by the State Department of Housing and Community Development. The LEAP grant provides five percent of the total, or $15,000, to be used for City staff administrative costs. Staff is recommending a reallocation of $12,500 from the administrative costs category to the Opticos Design, Inc. Objective Design Standards contract. The recommended reallocation would increase the LEAP Grant funded portion of the professional services agreement with Opticos Design, Inc., from $285,000 to $297,500. The remaining $7,245 required to fund the recommended amendment to contract 26,997 is proposed to be funded through the REAP grant. There is no anticipated General Fund cost associated with the recommended contract amendment. Funding sources for the contract amendment are listed in the tables below.
1 R2 is the Two-Unit Residential Zone intended to provide areas for medium density residential development.

CITY OF SANTA BARBARA
COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: August 30, 2022
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Housing and Human Services Division, Community Development Department
SUBJECT: Approval Of Housing Rehabilitation Grant For $310,000 With Santa Barbara Affordable Housing Group’s Property Located At 3931–3937 Via Diego [Contract]
RECOMMENDATION:
That Council approve a grant, subject to approval as to form by the City Attorney, in the amount of $310,000 for rehabilitation of property located at 3931–3937 Via Diego with Santa Barbara Affordable Housing Group and authorize the Community Development Director to execute such agreement and related documents as necessary.
DISCUSSION:
Background
Affordable housing is greatly needed in Santa Barbara, where local residential vacancy rates are very low and available affordable housing is critically low. Sustaining the current affordable housing stock is essential. A key component of safeguarding affordable housing stock is the City’s Housing Rehabilitation Loan Program (HRLP). HRLP uses payments received from previous affordable-housing loans provided through the federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program. These funds are then granted to rehabilitation projects that extend the life of existing affordable multi-unit housing developments.
The Via Diego Apartments project, located at 3931–3937 Via Diego in Santa Barbara, was developed by the Housing Authority of the City of Santa Barbara (Housing Authority) in 1985 as a federal public housing project. It is a 24-unit complex that houses families in five two-story buildings on a site of 2.1 acres. The units are all two-bedroom townhomes.
In 2015, the Santa Barbara Affordable Housing Group, a nonprofit organization formed by the Housing Authority and owner of Via Diego Apartments, converted the property to a Agenda Item No. 8
File Code No. 660.04
Council Agenda Report
Approval Of Housing Rehabilitation Grant For $310,000 With Santa Barbara Affordable Housing Group’s Property Located At 3931–3937 Via Diego [Contract] August 30, 2022
long-term, project-based Section 8 project under the federal Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) program.
Since 1985, the property has received periodic updates; however additional improvements are necessary. Past updates include replacement of children’s playground equipment, wood fences, and concrete patios; the addition of an accessible ramp to accommodate a resident; and the installation of new kitchen cabinets throughout. In 2021, the City provided a $355,000 grant using CDBG funded HRLP repayments to replace the roof.
In 2022, the Santa Barbara Affordable Housing Group submitted a request for additional funding in order to replace the building’s deteriorating exterior. The project will include the removal and replacement of existing windows, sliding doors, and all exterior building siding. New insulation will be added as part of the project, making the building more energy efficient. The Housing Authority’s Property and Development Department estimates the total cost to be $310,000. The Housing Authority will pay for any cost overruns above and beyond this amount.
The City’s Loan Committee has authority delegated from City Council to review and approve grant or loan requests up to $360,000; however, since a previous CDBG funded HRLP grant for $355,000 was provided by the City for the roof replacement, this additional grant in the amount of $310,000 will exceed the Loan Committee’s authority and, therefore, requires City Council approval. Due to timeliness requirements set by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to expend the funding as quickly as possible and that the property and project meet the eligibility requirements, this second request was not presented to the Finance Committee in order to meet the tight expenditure deadline.
Long-Term Affordability
The property currently provides affordable housing under the federal Rental Assistance Demonstration program. The City also recorded a new 90-year City Affordability Covenant on the property on April 15, 2021, when the previous grant was provided. The affordability covenant restricts the property to Low-Income household tenants earning less than 80 percent of Area Median Income (AMI) until 2109.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
As an expenditure of federal grant funds for rehabilitation work, the project requires environmental review under both Federal and State environmental regulations, which will be performed by the City’s Environmental Analyst. Upon completion and clearance, staff will provide the property owner with a notice to proceed with the project.
BUDGET/FINANCIAL INFORMATION:
Council Agenda Report
Approval Of Housing Rehabilitation Grant For $310,000 With Santa Barbara Affordable Housing Group’s Property Located At 3931–3937 Via Diego [Contract] August 30, 2022
The CDBG funded HRLP program has approximately $440,000 in available funding to support rehabilitation projects. The total amount of grant funding being recommended with this Council Agenda Report is $310,000. The HRLP Fund has sufficient available appropriations to fully fund the recommended rehabilitation grant. If the grant is approved and fully funded, there will be approximately $130,000 remaining in HRLP reserves to fund future rehabilitation projects. The City is required to expend HRLP funding as quickly as possible to adhere to HUD’s grant expenditure timeliness requirements.
A copy of the agreement is available for public review; please contact Laura Dubbels at [email protected] to request a copy.

The Housing Authority is requesting the grant of CDBG funds in the total amount of $310,000 for capital improvements to the affordable rental housing complex located at 3931-3937 Via Diego in Santa Barbara. This property is owned by Santa Barbara Affordable Housing Group, an instrumentality of the Housing Authority of the City of Santa Barbara.
This is a 24-unit complex built in 1985 for families in five two-story buildings on a site of 2.1 acres. The units are all two-bedroom townhouses. While various property improvements have been made to this property over the years (including a roof replacement in 2021 funded by the City’s HRLP funds), the building exterior envelope is showing its age and is need of replacement. The project will include the removal and replacement of the existing windows, sliding doors and all exterior building siding. New insulation will be added as part of the project. The total cost of the project is estimated at $310,000. This cost estimate was put together by the Housing Authority’s Property and Development Department. However, any cost overruns above this amount will be funded by the Housing Authority, if necessary.
I am sure you will have further questions so please let me know what additional information you will need.
Thank you for your consideration of this grant request.
Sincerely,
Dale Fathe-Aazam
Director of Property, Development and Administration

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: August 30, 2022
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Business Services Division, Waterfront Department SUBJECT: Approval Of T-2 System’s Luke Self-Pay Parking Stations As Standard Equipment For The Waterfront Department
RECOMMENDATION:
That Council find it in the City’s best interest to waive formal purchase bidding requirements and approve T-2 System’s Luke Self-Pay Parking Stations as Standard Equipment for the Waterfront Department for the next three years, in accordance with Section 4.52.070 (L) of the Municipal Code.
DISCUSSION:
The Waterfront Department operates eight parking lots with approximately 2,580 parking stalls. Two of the parking lots, Stearns Wharf and Harbor Main, are staffed and use revenue control/point of sale systems that operate with ticket dispensers, and entry and exit gate arms. Stearns Wharf is staffed daily all year long and the Harbor Main parking lot is staffed twenty-four hours a day, 365 days a year. The remaining six parking lots use T-2 System’s Luke Self-Pay Parking Stations (Luke Stations).
Since 2011, the Department has installed 31 Luke Stations in six Waterfront parking lots with much success. The Luke Stations provide a customer-friendly screen and key pad application which allows residents and visitors to quickly access a parking permit, display the ticket on their dashboard, and go about their enjoyment.
Municipal Code Section 4.52.070 (L), a best interest waiver, is applicable because standardizing the equipment at the Waterfront parking lots minimizes the need to train staff on the installation, maintenance, and use of a wide variety of equipment. This standardization provides better response times for making repairs and responding to emergencies, resulting in improved performance and reliability of the Waterfront Department’s parking facilities. Additionally, standardizing the Luke Stations provides consistency and a sense of comfort for patrons of Waterfront parking lots, which results in additional trips to the area.

TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Business Services Division, Waterfront Department.
SUBJECT: Authorization To Purchase SKIDATA Inc. Equipment For Parking Revenue Control Equipment Upgrade In Waterfront Parking Lots RECOMMENDATION:
That Council find it in the City’s best interest to waive the formal bid procedure as authorized by Municipal Code Section 4.52.070 (L), and authorize the General Services Manager to issue a purchase order to Skidata Group, Inc., for parking revenue control equipment upgrade in an amount not-to-exceed $174,499.
DISCUSSION:
The Waterfront Department operates eight parking lots encompassing approximately 2,580 parking stalls. Two of the parking lots, Stearns Wharf and Harbor Main, are staffed and use revenue control/point of sale systems that operate with ticket dispensers, entry and exit gate arms, and Automated License Plate Recognition (ALPR) hardware. The Harbor Main parking lot is staffed twenty-four hours a day, 365 days a year. Stearns Wharf is staffed during business hours year-round.
In Fiscal Year (FY) 2016 the Waterfront Department installed SKIDATA equipment at the Harbor Main Parking Lot kiosks and the Stearns Wharf Kiosk. This equipment is reaching end of life and will no longer be supported by the manufacturer after calendar year 2022.
The proposed purchase will replace existing equipment and ensure Waterfront Parking Services continues to provide the required functions of its parking program.
The reason that Municipal Code Section 4.52.070 (L), a best interest waiver, is applicable is that SKIDATA Inc. is the only certified distributor and installer of SKIDATA equipment and the only company authorized to work on SKIDATA products for warranty purposes.
SKIDATA Inc. is located in the San Fernando Valley and able to provide consistent, ongoing equipment maintenance and repair whilst being able to respond to urgent calls within hours. Additionally, Downtown Parking, Waterfront Parking, and Airport Parking all Agenda Item No. 10

TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Water Resources Division, Public Works Department SUBJECT: Authorization To Purchase Water Treatment Chemicals For The Charles E. Meyer Desalination Plant
RECOMMENDATION:
That Council find it in the City’s best interest to waive the formal bidding process as authorized by Municipal Code 4.52.070(L); and authorize the City General Services Manager to issue a Blanket Purchase Order to Chemrite Inc. (Chemrite) in the amount of $55,000, for the purchase of ortho-polyphosphate, with the option to renew the Purchase Order for an additional four years, expiring August 30, 2027, subject to appropriation of funds as part of the annual budget adoption.
DISCUSSION:
The Charles E. Meyer Desalination Plant (Desal Plant) provides approximately one-third of the City’s drinking water supplies. Specialized chemicals, including orthopolyphosphate, are used in the water treatment process, and are approved for use under Federal and State drinking water regulations.
The water treatment process includes ensuring water produced at the Desal Plant is compatible with the City’s water distribution pipes. Ortho-polyphosphate is used to minimize corrosion in the water distribution system. Corrosion protection is especially important for the City’s aging water distribution system.
Corrosion inhibitor manufacturers use their own proprietary blend of chemicals. The Desal Plant’s staff has evaluated the performance of different manufacturers’ corrosion inhibitors and has determined the Chemrite product to be the most efficient and best suited to work with the Desal Plant’s water chemistry. As a result, staff has been purchasing the Chemrite product through an annual Blanket Purchase Order. This product is competitively priced, helps ensure the Desal Plant’s water complies with Federal and State drinking water regulations, and protects the City’s water distribution pipes against corrosion.
Considering the Chemrite corrosion inhibitor’s proven performance and competitive pricing, staff recommends that Council find it in the City’s best interest to waive the formal Agenda Item No. 11

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: August 30, 2022
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Administration Division, Airport Department
SUBJECT: Airport Department Status Update
RECOMMENDATION:
That Council receive a status update from Airport Department staff on Airport related matters including operations, property management, facilities maintenance, air service development, aviation activity, and the delivery of capital improvements at the Santa Barbara Airport.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Santa Barbara Airport (SBA) continues to adapt to what has been the most volatile time in industry history. Initially, the Covid pandemic resulted in a virtual shutdown of aviation activity. Across the industry, recovery was initially very slow, causing a prolonged and very significant drop in revenue. As a result, SBA initially put a pause on most significant capital expenditures as well as on the filling of some vacant positions. To support airports dealing with revenue shortages, the Federal government provided several batches of funding to airports nationwide. The stimulus funding coupled with growth in demand for air travel at SBA to record levels has put the airport on financially stable ground moving forward. The challenges that now lie ahead deal primarily with implementation of the Airport’s Capital Improvement Projects as SBA looks to provide the infrastructure necessary to meet the demand and customer expectation for service while being responsive to community impacts.
DISCUSSION:
During the period of January 2022 to present, SBA experienced record passenger growth.
The pandemic recovery coupled with the influx of Federal relief funds have well positioned SBA to move forward on several key capital improvements. Although most vacant positions have now been filled, several key vacancies remain. In addition, the appropriate overall level of staffing must increase to meet the expanded levels of activity and hours of operation. This report provides the following:

Aviation Activity Trends Nationwide and at SBA
Commercial (airlines) and non-commercial (corporate, general aviation, military) aircraft operations have recovered above and beyond pre-Covid levels. The rebound in commercial airline activities here at SBA has outperformed the nationwide trend as shown by the figure below. This increase is due in part to the entry of Southwest to the market in Spring 2021 and a strong demand for domestic leisure travel.
Figure 1.
Non-commercial aircraft operations rebounded quickly at SBA. This trend followed a nationwide trend in growing demand for General Aviation immediately following initial Covid related travel restrictions. The figure below depicts the number of non-commercial aviation operations seen at SBA since 2019.

Overall, the level of aircraft activity at SBA has fully recovered, helping the department to achieve fiscal sustainability.
SBA Financial Summary
The Santa Barbara Airport funds the overall operation through a diverse source of revenue streams. The commercial / industrial and Fixed Base Operator (FBO) lease revenues provide a more stable source compared to demand-based revenue streams associated with commercial air travel. The lease revenue supports SBA’s ability to develop rates and charges for the commercial airlines that help to attract and retain air service. The table below shows the 5-year trend for these revenue streams.
Fiscal Year 2021 revenue was significantly impacted by limited demand for commercial air services. Exclusive of grant funding, this operational deficit continued into Fiscal Year 2022.
The total operational deficit would have been approximately $10 million. Fortunately, the Federal government, through several different stimulus packages, provided nearly $20 million in funding to support SBA. These funds shored up our operational deficit and we are now in a reserve position that is above policy. This is an important position to be in as significant local funds will be needed in the next 5 to 10 years to provide the necessary match funding for significant capital improvement projects that are in various stages of implementation.
Airport Capital Improvement Projects
Since the beginning of January 2022, Council approved several contracts for work to commence on various projects. These include: the resumption of the Fixed Based Operator (FBO) Redevelopment Project; the Southfield Redevelopment Project (SRP); the design contract for the Terminal Expansion and Parking Structure (TEPS) project; the contract for the Master Plan Update (MPU); the contract for the General Western Aero Hangars Feasibility Study; the Contract for the regulatory requirement of a per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) work plan; the grant acceptance for the Local Coastal Plan and Sea Level Rise Vulnerability Assessment and Adaptation plan from the California Coastal Commission (CCC); the extension of Passenger Facility Charges (PFC); the reestablishment of Car Rental Facility Charges (CFC); and the Airfield Marking Signage and Lighting (AMSL) Project. The most significant of these projects are briefly described below.

FBO Redevelopment
In July 2022, Council authorized an increase in extra services with Jacobs Engineering Inc. for aviation planning services of the FBO Redevelopment Project at SBA. The project began in 2019 and is now moving into a second phase, which will culminate in a Development Plan, a concept for future FBO infrastructure, a financial plan, a business plan, and a solicitation plan that provides the City assistance with preparing a process for the selection of two prospective FBOs. The FBO Redevelopment project was included in the 2017 Airport Master Plan (AMP).
Southfield Redevelopment
The 2017 AMP recommended several intermediate-term and long-term capital improvement projects in the area south of the Airline Terminal, commonly known as ‘Southfield’. These recommended projects are to accommodate future growth in commercial passenger boardings (enplanements). Two of the recommended intermediate-term improvements were to construct additional remain overnight (RON) aircraft parking spaces and additional rental car parking. In doing so, the Airport will have greater flexibility to allow delayed aircraft (e.g. weather, mechanical, etc) to reposition away from the passenger boarding bridges until approved for departure. The additional rental car parking will help ensure an adequate number of rental cars are readily available for pick-up and drop-off at the Terminal.
Currently, the project is 95% design complete with construction expected to start later this year and be complete by the end of 2023.
Terminal Expansion and Parking
Two of the 2017 AMP recommended long-term improvements to Southfield include a terminal expansion and a new multi-level parking structure. The terminal expansion would add additional gate space as well as additional floor space for security screening, baggage operations, and concessions. The parking structure would add additional parking at the Terminal and house the rental car customer counters and rental car pick-up and drop-off operations. In June 2022, Council approved a conceptual design contract with Corgan.
Conceptual design is expected to be complete in 2023, and construction is not expected to start until 2026 at the earliest.
Master Plan Update
SBA completed the AMP in 2017. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) encourages, and funds, updates to airport master plans every five to ten years to ensure the document is responsive to current and forecasted needs and accounts for changes in conditions and operations. Since 2017, SBA has experienced healthy growth and a change in commercial aircraft from regional jets to widebody jets. The MPU, led by Mead and Hunt consultants, will provide updated aviation forecasts and necessary capital improvements for the next 20 years. Development of the MPU will include a robust stakeholder involvement program, incorporate sustainability and resilience principles, and be subject to environmental review.

General Western Aero Hangars
Originally constructed in 1931, the General Western Aero Hangars (GWAH) are two structures of merit located on Airport property near the intersection of Fairview Avenue and Hollister Avenue (Buildings 248 and 249). Both structures reside in a regulatory floodway near San Pedro Creek. Per a prior historic structures report, Buildings 248 and 249 are eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places and are also listed as Potential Historical Resources for the City, but are not currently on the City’s Landmarks list.
A prior conditions and use analysis of the hangars was completed by LMA Architects (LMA) in 2002. The 2002 report included feasibility information to demolish, relocate, or restore the hangars. No action was taken on these hangars since that report was completed due to a lack of funding. LMA was selected in June 2022 to provide an updated feasibility study in order to recommend options for the future of the hangars.
CCC Grants for LCP and Sea Level Rise
In June 2022, the City accepted a grant from the CCC to assess infrastructure vulnerability at SBA, develop a sea-level rise adaptation plan, and crate a Local Coastal Program (LCP) update for the Airport Segment of the City of Santa Barbara’s Coastal Zone. The Airport LCP was last updated and certified by the California Coastal Commission in 2003. The project builds upon two major planning efforts that the City has already completed utilizing grant funding from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, the Coastal Conservancy, the County of Santa Barbara Coastal Resource Enhancement Fund, the Goleta West Sanitary District, and the Goleta Valley Land Trust.
Airfield Marking Signage and Lighting
The Airfield Marking, Signage, and Lighting (AMSL) Project is a safety and energy savings project that will install Light Emitting Diodes (LED) airfield lights and update pavement markings and airfield signage. The updated airfield signage will include revised taxiway naming to be consistent with recent FAA safety guidance. The change to LED lights will reduce the energy consumption of the airfield lights and decrease the labor necessary to maintain the lighting system. The project is currently design complete with construction expected to start in summer 2023 and be complete by summer 2024.
Aircraft Noise Advisory Program
Noise is generally defined as “unwanted sound.” Aviation noise, arising mostly from aircraft operations in the air and on airport runways, affects those around airports or under the flight paths. Despite technological advances in aircraft engine and airframe design that make most jets in operation today much quieter than their predecessors, public concerns over noise often have led to contentious relationships between community groups and airports as well as the FAA.
Council Agenda Report
Airport Department Status Update
August 30, 2022
Airport noise is predominantly a local issue, but it often involves multiple stakeholders who have distinctive authorities and shared responsibilities with regard to noise abatement and mitigation. The federal government has authority over airspace use and management, air traffic control, aviation safety, aircraft noise emissions, and airport development policy.
SBA has an Aircraft Noise Advisory Program. City staff log all noise complaints received through the SBA PublicVue platform or through an Automated Noise Advisory Hotline Number (805) 967-1900. Nearly 17,000 complaints have been logged over the past year with a peak of over 3,200 in the month of August 2021.
Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement Act of 1979
The Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement Act of 1979 (ASNA) directed FAA to (1) establish a single system of noise measurement to be applied uniformly in measuring noise at airports and surrounding areas on the ground; (2) establish a single system for determining the noise exposure resulting from airport operations and its impact on individuals; and (3) identify land uses that are incompatible with various noise exposures.
FAA promulgated 14 C.F.R. Part 150 to implement these requirements. Part 150 established the “day-night average sound level” (DNL) as the noise metric. DNL is an aggregate measure of aviation noise over a 24-hour period, with consideration given to nighttime noise events to account for increased human sensitivity at night. Supported by funding from AIP, 14 C.F.R. Part 150 also established standards for airports to document noise exposure and to develop measures that reduce or prevent incompatible land uses.
Airport Noise and Capacity Act of 1990
Congress enacted the Airport Noise and Capacity Act (ANCA) in 1990, during a time when community noise concerns led to uncoordinated and inconsistent restrictions on aviation that were said to impede the nation’s airport system. ANCA called for establishment of a national aviation noise policy. The law increased FAA’s authority over noise matters and authorized a local charge on departing passengers as an additional source of airport revenue, known as a “Passenger Facility Charge”. ANCA and its resulting regulations, 14 C.F.R. Part 161, impose stringent requirements on airports seeking to implement certain types of noise rules or restrictions, including night curfews, caps on maximum noise levels, numbers of aircraft operations, and noise-based fees.
The recent growth in aircraft activity at SBA has helped support the economic vitality of this region. However, the activity has been noticed by neighbors living in proximity to the airport.
Commercial aircraft operations are now taking place daily between approximately 5:00 am to nearly midnight. Some constituents have expressed concern that these operations interfere with daily activities such as sleep, speech, relaxation, school, and/or business operations.
Airport Use Restriction (Curfew)
Members of the community have suggested consideration be given to imposing a curfew on aircraft operations to minimize noise impacts. Use restrictions at other airports (Burbank and San Diego) are often cited, however, these examples were enacted prior to ANCA in 1990.
Council Agenda Report
Airport Department Status Update
August 30, 2022
Creating a similar use restriction today would almost certainly be rejected by the FAA given the number of statutory conditions that must be met per C.F.R. Part 161.
Noise Compatibility Study
Airport Noise Compatibility Planning was created by ASNA. 14 C.F.R Part 150 established the “day-night average sound level” (DNL) as the noise metric for describing community noise impacts and identified DNL 65 decibels (dB) as the threshold of significant aircraft noise as well as incompatible residential land use. Part 150 is the primary federal regulation directing planning for aviation noise compatibility on and around airports. Airport participation is voluntary. Participating airports are eligible to receive federal funding for noise planning and abatement and mitigation projects.
SBA last completed a Part 150 Noise Compatibility Study in January 2005. The study concluded that there are no residential properties within the vicinity of the airport that are impacted by nuisance noise above the federal standard. Subsequent studies continue to validate these conclusions. Airport staff began developing digital noise contours utilizing FAA approved software in 2019. In 2020, Santa Barbara City Council approved the upgrade and reactivation of SBA noise monitoring terminals (NMTs). Since reactivation, the monitors have validated the digital contouring utilized by the Airport.
While it is worth noting that no residential properties were within the 65 dB DNL contour, a recent FAA survey showed that aircraft noise becomes a significant “annoyance” at levels as low as DNL 50 dB and DNL 55 dB. This suggests that the established DNL 65 dB threshold for identifying significant noise problems may no longer be an adequate guide for federal policymakers. Should FAA adjust the DNL 65 dB threshold, there could be policy and budgetary implications.
SBA is planning to conduct an updated Part 150 Noise Compatibility Study this Fiscal Year.
If the DNL 65 dB contour remains similar, residential properties will remain ineligible for noise abatement and mitigation projects.
Flight Path
Another tool to mitigate noise impacts is the establishment of preferred runway approaches.
The FAA can issue special approach instructions in order to assist the community with noise abatement. In the case of Runway 25 (main runway approach from the east), the FAA issued what is called an RNAV Visual approach to Southwest, United, Alaska, and Horizon. These approaches are proprietary and issued directly to the carriers. Adoption of this approach has been much more consistent than the recommended voluntary noise abatement approach.
The FAA has not developed a similar noise abatement approach for approaches to Runway 7 (main runway from the west).
Next Steps
Continue to respond to log noise complaints and post monthly reports online Discuss potential actions items at Airport Commission, including o Move forward with updated Noise Compatibility Study
Council Agenda Report

o Pursue FAA development and implementation of RNAV Visual noise abatement approach for Runway 7
SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:
The Santa Barbara General Plan focuses on a stated mission statement of “Living within Our Resources” and stresses sustainability for development (City of Santa Barbara 2011).
Also, a guiding principle of the 2017 Airport Master Plan (AMP) and the MPU is to support sustainable design of airport facilities and the wise use of resources. Each project above will be consistent with both the General Plan and the AMP.
In addition, SBA staff regularly collaborate with the City’s Sustainability and Resilience Department to ensure that each project is efficient and resilient as possible.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The projects derived from the 2017 AMP were included in the adopted 2017 Airport Master Plan EIR. The MPU, and any new projects or alternatives derived will be subject to additional California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review. Any projects that are selected for development as part of the MPU will be subject to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), as well as the California Coastal Act.
