The area around the <br />airport includes non -compatible development including residential areas and schools. The airport <br />is becoming increasingly busy, with significant growth in operations over the last 5 years. <br />Forecasts suggest growth at RMMA will continue. <br />As operations increase, noise and other impacts associated with aircraft overflights is also <br />increasing, raising concerns of nearby residents. The Town of Superior and the City of Louisville <br />have hired ABCx2, LLC (consultants) to help identify strategies to address this growing issue. <br />The consultants were tasked with strengthening collaboration between the Airport, Jefferson <br />County (owner/operator the Airport), and Superior and Louisville. The increased collaboration <br />will help to identify and implement strategies aimed at reducing impacts attributed to the growth <br />of RMMA. <br />The approach proposed by ABCx2 started with an assessment of existing conditions including an <br />analysis of annual operations, flight procedures and airspace, land -uses and zoning, and the <br />existing noise abatement program at the airport. The result of this work is summarized in this <br />Baseline Assessment Summary Report. The report will provide a starting point for exploring <br />new policies, practices, and procedures, aimed at reducing the community impacts associated <br />RMMA. Results of this work are also intended to encourage airport growth be sustainable, <br />helping maintain the quality of life for residents living in proximity to RMMA. <br />Background / History <br />The Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport (RMMA) is located along the northern boundary of <br />Jefferson County. It is surrounded by residential development with the Town of Superior to the <br />northwest, Louisville to the north, Broomfield on the east and west, and Westminster to the <br />south. <br />www.abcx2.com Page 5 info@abcx2.com <br />�1 <br />
