Document Description
A Building Permit application for security fencing around the perimeter of the Stockton Metropolitan Airport. Existing areas of six (6) foot tall chain link fencing with barbed wire on top will be replaced with eight (8) foot tall chain link fencing with two (2) feet of barbed wire fencing, as recommended by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Airport Safety and Operations Division regarding wildlife exclusion fencing. As stated in FAA National Part 139 Cert Alert, taller fence heights are recommended to keep mammals, particularly deer and coyotes, off of aircraft movement areas to reduce incidences of aircraft damage. Some existing areas of fencing will also be relocated to exclude non-airport properties and correct a deficiency in security measures. A Building Permit is only required because the proposed fence height exceeds seven (7) feet.
The Property is zoned P-F (Public Facilities) and AP-X (Airport Multi-Use), and the General Plan designations are P (Public) and AP/X (Airport/Multi -Use).
