The AICUZ Program
We’ve all seen the sign outside military bases—“If you lived here, you’d be home by now.” People who work on base want to live nearby; still others want to provide services to those employees and to the base. Military installations attract development. When incompatible development takes place near an air station, affected parties may try to seek relief through the imposition of reduced take-off weights, flight track changes, quiet hours and even loss of flying mission. The Department of Defense (DOD) initiated the AICUZ Program to promote compatible development near military airfields. The goal of this Program is to protect the health, safety, and welfare of people living near the airfield, while preserving the defense flying mission. The AICUZ Program recommends incorporation of noise contours, accident potential zones (APZs), and other safety criteria, into the local land use planning process and provides recommendations for development that is compatible with the air station’s mission.
