The City is home to the San Diego International Airport - Lindbergh Field (SDIA), Brown Field and Montgomery Field general aviation municipal airports, and Marine Corps Air Station Miramar. In addition, although they are outside the City, Naval Air Station North Island, Naval Outlying Field Imperial Beach, and Tijuana International Airport have airport operations that affect the City. As the owner and operator for Brown and Montgomery Fields, the City is responsible for preparing the Airport Master Plans for each airport, which serve as the plans for future airport development. The City works with the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority and SANDAG in planning, providing, and expanding multi-modal transportation facilities between SDIA and the region's major activity centers.
The City strives to ensure land use planning is compatible with airport operations. State law requires that the Airport Authority, as the Airport Land Use Commission (ALUC), prepare Airport Land Use Compatibility Plans (ALUCPs) containing the policies and procedures for land use and airport compatibility for areas surrounding each airport. The City coordinates with the ALUC and airport operators on preparing and amending, community plans, zoning, development regulations, and the review of certain development proposals within airport influence areas to ensure protection of residents, workers, visitors, and airport operations.
Status:
The Airport Authority is currently in the process of updating the ALUCPs for the region's airports.
