ATRPORT ROUNDTABLE CONSULTANT Councilman Amstrup requested council discuss the Airport Roundtable's need to hire a consultant, charging $500 to each city. The county and airport will each pay $101000 toward the cost. He felt the city should be represented at the meetings and wondered why the Roundtable needed to hire a consultant when it has staff. Mayor Barton stated the cit-y is represented at those meetings. Councilman Martin said the county gets some $14 million per year in taxes from the airport. He felt the county should pay for con-sultant since the cities get no revenue from airport. 2 REGIONAL AIRPORT PLANNING COMMITTEE LETTER OPPOSING MARR]OTT HOTEL Councilman Martin reviewed a letter addressed to the Mayor from RAPC which discussed resul-ts of a meeting in May at which RAPC determined that the Marriott project and the Millbrae hotel project would pre- sent noise and safety hazards. RAPC indicates it will meet again in June and then make a recommendation to BCDC regarding the height of both hotels. Councilman Martin requested staff prepare a letter to RAPC to express council's reqret that RAPC did not notify the city when it began a review of the Marriott project. He pointed out that RAPC presents the position of the airport and ALPA and ignores the position of f'AA and ALUC. He requested staff point out these differences in the letter. Councilman Martin noted that RAPC mentions the possibility of bay fill to extend Runway L9 because of the need to overfly the hotels. He stated that the airport would love to extend the runway but the reason has nothing to do with the hotels. The present Runway l/19 does not allow some large planes to take off, whereas if it were extended, those planes could also take off on Runway 1. Using the airports figures, there are 31000 flights from Runway 19 each year and 110,000 flights from Runway 1. More use of Runway 1 would greatly increase noise j-n Burlingame from backblast. He said the airport must also reduce the number of homes it overflys each year and extension of the runway would aIlow more planes to take of,f on Runway I over water andless to take off on Runway 28 which overflys San Bruno, South SanFrancisco and Daly City. This would make it verlz easy for the airportto comply with reduction of overflights. Councilman Martin requested the letter go out as soon as possible.Council concurred and Mayor Barton will sign the letter. 6 381 ACKNOWLE DGMENT S 1.
