CITY
OF BURBANK 275 EAST OLIVE AVENUE,
P.O. BOX 6459, BURBANK, CALIFORNIA 91510-6459 October
13, 2000
HAND DELIVERED Mr.
Dan Feger Director
of Engineering and Planning Airport
Authority 2627
Hollywood Way Burbank,
CA 91505 Re:
August 14, 2000, Third Superseding Application for Approval of Land
Acquisition – Notice of Filing of Application Dear
Mr. Feger: The
City of Burbank has received the letter from the Burbank-Glendale-Pasadena
Airport Authority (“Authority”) dated September
15, 2000 (“Response Letter”), which responded to the City’s
letter to you of September 1, 2000 (“Incompleteness Letter”).
In the Incompleteness Letter, the City identified a number of areas
in which the above-referenced application (“21661.6 Application”)
under Public Utilities Code Section 21661.6 (“Section 21661.6”) did
not provide a complete basis to allow processing the Authority’s request
for approval. We
have determined that, with the information in the Response Letter and in
referenced documents, the 21661.6 Application is an adequate plan on which
to base a review of an airport expansion or enlargement plan under Section
21661.6. The City, therefore, considers the 21661.6 Application
complete as of the date of this letter. Pursuant
to the procedures for review by the Burbank City Council of plan for
expansion of the Burbank-Glendale-Pasadena Airport, the Airport is not
required to submit any additional information to make the 21661.6
Application complete. However,
if the Authority wants to submit other information for consideration by
City staff during the process of preparing the Preliminary Analysis of the
expansion plan, the City will accept and consider additional information
until the close of the public hearing on the Preliminary Analysis, but
cannot guarantee that there will be an opportunity to include it in the
Preliminary Analysis if it is received more than five business days after
the date of this letter. Any
such information will be considered prior to making a final decision. Since
your application only references Section 21661.6, the City will require
that you submit separate applications at some future date for the other
approvals needed before your proposed project can proceed including, but
not necessarily limited to a General Plan Amendment, Lot Line Adjustment,
and Planned Development (or Zone Text Amendment, Zone Map Amendment, and
Conditional Use Permit.) Please
call Paul Deibel or me if you have any questions regarding the issues in
this letter or the Section 21661.6 process generally.
Legal questions can be addressed to City Attorney Dennis Barlow or
the City’s special counsel, Peter Kirsch at Cutler & Stanfield. Sincerely, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT s/ Robert M. Tague
