Application For Determination of Consistency

Please attach the following documents below:

1. Property deed OR title report, in name of current owner (public agency ownership excepted)
2. Project site plan with floor plans, dimensioned elevations & calculations to show ALUCP density/intensity compliance (site plan must show applicable safety zones and/or noise contours to scale if site is within more than one safety zone and/or noise contour; downloadable GIS files are available under our Mapping Tool)
3. FAA Determination(s) of No Hazard to Air Navigation for structure(s) AND crane (Design professional certification of no FAA notice required may be accepted in lieu of FAA determination on case-by-case basis. A separate FAA determination is required for the anticipated height of the crane in addition to a separate determination for the structure)
4. Disclosure of property owner & developer interests (if trust, partnership, corporation, or other entity, the individuals, managing partners, or primary shareholders must be disclosed by name using either a local agency form or self-prepared summary)

The ALUC is required to review all legislative actions (typically rezones and general/community plans and their amendments approved by a city council)—but only those having land use implications within either the noise contours and/or safety zones of one or more ALUCPs. Matters that do not affect land use or apply only in areas outside ALUCP noise contours or safety zones are not subject to ALUC review. Please consult ALUC staff at [email protected] if you have any questions determining whether an action requires ALUC review.

For those actions requiring ALUC review, submit copies or links of the plans or maps of the affected property/properties showing both the existing and proposed land use designations and/or zones involved, as applicable. Because every local agency classifies land use zones and designations differently, please provide a description of the zones or land use designations rather than just a label; e.g., describe as “Limited Industrial”, rather than “LI-3”, and what such a zone or designation permits for the ALUC to assess compatibility of land uses.

In instances when the ALUC has previously approved an agency’s implementation of the ALUCP through a General Plan and/or zoning code, proposed changes are still required to be reviewed by the ALUC. However, the scope of ALUC review in these instances is limited to ONLY the legislative action; i.e., only the compatibility of uses under the new designation or zone will be assessed.

In instances when a private project sponsor is seeking to change site zoning or plan designation to permit a concurrent project, the ALUC will only review the rezone or plan amendment component and will not review specific project details (like airspace height attested by an FAA determination, structural sound attenuation standards, or specific site residential density or nonresidential intensity) because these site-specific details are within the legal purview of the local agency to evaluate of its own accord per ALUC approval of the agency’s implementation. Thus, please do not provide project plans or FAA determinations in instances when a private project is involved with a rezone and/or plan amendment.
