Category 1: Plan Areas Subject to All Compatibility Review Criteria for New Development
Within the Community Plan Areas for Clairemont Mesa, Kearny Mesa, Los Penasquitos Preserve, Mira Mesa, Torrey Pines, and University, new development requires review for compatibility with Noise, Safety, and Airspace Protection criteria as specified below, and overflight notification for new residential development. Airspace protection compatibility review and real estate disclosure are required for all community plan areas within the Airport Land Use Compatibility Overlay Zone. FAA notification is required for any proposed development that would be 200 feet or greater above grade to evaluate whether the development would be a hazard to air navigation. In accordance with state law, all residential real estate transactions within the airport influence area are required to disclose that the property is located within an airport influence area.
