Project Number:  133

Parcel ID(s):  Not applicable

Project Description:  The applicant would like to rezone the site from “ER” Neighborhood Commercial Restricted, “E” Neighborhood Commercial, “I” Light Industrial with NASJBR APZ I & II Overlay to “A-5” One-Family, “R1” Zero Lot Line/Cluster, “R2” Townhouse Cluster with NASJBR APZ I & II Overlay.  The applicant intends build single-family and townhomes on the proposed site.  Portions of this re-zoning are located in APZ-I and APZ-II, and the 70 and 65 DNL contours.

Edward Spurlin CPLO at NAS Fort Worth, JRB 6/8/2021 This project was previously discussed with the City of Fort Worth Planning and Zoning and the proposed project lead, Habitat for Humanity. Agreement was reached that APZ boundaries would be preserved and that no dwelling would be included in the APZs as part of the development plan, and noise mitigation measures would be incorporated within dwellings impacted within noise contours. Discussions where for signal family homes and no higher density townhome structures. APZs – Residential of any type is strongly discourage IAW DoD directives within APZ I and by exception only within APZ II with a maximum density of 1-2 dwellings per acre. APZs are the statistical accident potential zone of air ports and should be strictly preserved by city zoning standards for the health, safety and welfare of the public. Greater than 65 decibel DNL (day-night average) noise contour is also present in proposed area within this proposal and residential development is also discourage; with an exception that single-unit, detached-structures comply with noise mitigation that reduces the outside noise levels by 25-30 disables within the dwellings. NAS JRB strongly discourages any type of residential dwelling within APZ I and a maximum density of 1-2 dwelling per acre within APZ II. Additionally, per plan, the proposed dwellings outside the APZ boundaries and within high-level noise contours incorporate in construction standards noise/sound mitigation reductions of 25-30 db from outside to inside noise levels. High-density type development (townhomes) within APZ II is also discouraged.

James  Hoelke Lockheed Martin Aeronautics 6/8/2021 Lockheed Martin analysis finds the project incompatible as outlined by DoD Air Installation Compatible Use Zone (AICUZ) standards. Proposed single-family and townhome residential developments within proximity of a military aircraft manufacturing facility and military installation, both with active jet aircraft, has the following negative considerations: Incompatible: military aircraft 65-70 db noise hazard zone. Incompatible: encroachment to a strategic military aircraft production facility. Safety: military jet low-altitude airfield pattern, overflight hazard. A residential proposal, at that location, is counter by all standards of compatible land use that close to military jet operations.
