RESOLUTION NO. 2416
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF EL SEGUNDO, CALIFORNIA, OPPOSING
THE EXTENSION OF THE SOUTH RUNWAYS AT
LOS ANGELES INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT.
WHEREAS, the City of Inglewood has requested the extension
of the south runways at Los Angeles International Airport approximately
5, 000 feet to the west in order to alleviate the noise problem that afflicts
residents under the landing pattern; and
WHEREAS, residents of the City of E1 Segundo are affected by
noise from aircraft operations at Los Angeles International Airport and are
concerned about plans for operational changes that would increase the expo-
sure of E1 Segundo to aircraft noise; and
WHEREAS, the El Segundo Noise Abatement Committee has
found after considering information presented by the officials of the City
of Inglewood and the Department of Airports that extension of the runways
as proposed would increase the exposure of local residents to aircraft noise
while providing only minor relief to residents under the landing pattern; and
WHEREAS, the El Segundo City Council opposes any attempted
solution to noise problems at Los Angeles International Airport that would
assist one area or group of residents near the airport while increasing the
problem for other groups;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT THE EL SEGUNDO
CITY COUNCIL:
1. Opposes the extension of the runways as proposed by the
City of Inglewood because of the increase in noise exposure
that would result for El Segundo residents.
2. Urges the Board of Airport Commissioners to reject the pro-
posal as an inappropriate and inadequate response to the prob-
lems of airport noise.
