Utilities Code Section 21670 (b) required each county in which there is located an airport that is
served by a scheduled airline to establish an Airport Land Use Commission (ALUC); and
WHEREAS, Senate Bill No. 443 amended Public Utilities Code Section 21670(b)to change
the term "shall" to "may" in order to relieve local entities such as the County of the duty to incur
unnecessary expenses in certain aspects of airport land use; and

administration of the ALUC program; and
WHEREAS,Assembly Bill No. 2831 (effective January 1, 1995) amended Public Utilities

allows local jurisdictions to make land use decisions for areas within a public use airport sphere of
influence as designated by a comprehensive airport land use plan; and

establishment of the County ALUC, will eliminate redundant reviews and streamline processes;
