Lindbergh Field	Airport Development and Financing	Site Selection

Why We Are Here

The San Diego region continues to be served by single-runway Lindbergh Field, located near downtown San Diego. Due to its urban location, the single runway, terrain limitations and limited expansion possibilities, replacement and/or augmentation has been discussed for decades.

The San Diego County Regional Airport Authority (SDCRAA), established on Janauary 1, 2003, took over the Airport Site Selection Program from the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG). SANDAG had already published and Airport Economic Analysis showing the economic need for a new airport. While a concept dual-runway airport is the ideal solution, finding a suitable location has stymied authorities, who have authored over 25 airport studies over recent decades.

Within the past two months, the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority (SDCRAA) teamed up with the San Diego Union-Tribune to initiate on-line dialogues regarding the current airport selection study in a project titled Fly Into The Future.

The end results of these discussions will be presented to the SDCRAA soon. The North County Times has an article highlighting the report. Fourteen groups conversed for about 10 days on airport issues. After completion, a Fifteenth group was established from those who wished to continue discussions.

Some participants of Group 15 met Sat. July 23, 2005 to continue discussions, find common ground and begin a process of citizen advocacy for a reasonable and workable solution to San Diego's airport dilemma. Click for the synopsis of the meeting.
