About the Project

The Airport Authority is committed to protecting the safety and welfare of the general public and the ability of airports to operate now and in the future. One of the Authority’s responsibilities is to serve as the Airport Land Use Commission (ALUC) for San Diego County. The NASNI ALUCP will serve as the primary tool the ALUC uses to review proposed land developments in the NASNI environs for compatibility with military aviation operations. The ALUCP is also intended to assist local agencies in preparing or amending land use plans and regulations as well as in the review of proposed land use projects within their jurisdictions.
