Solano County Airport Land Use Commission (ALUC) 

The Solano County Airport Land Use Commission (ALUC) was created to provide for orderly development of public airports in Solano County, as well as area surrounding airports to prevent new noise and safety problems. The Commission prepares Airport Land Use Compatibility Plans, reviews city and county general plans and zoning for consistency with Airport Land Use Compatibility Plans.  California’s State Aeronautics Act (Public Utilities Code sections 21670 et seq.), identifies the role and responsibilities of ALUCs in land use planning. The Act is intended to ensure that proposed land uses in areas around public-use airports are compatible with continued airport operations.  

Solano County Airport Land Use Compatibility Plans:
Travis Air Force Base Plan
Nut Tree Airport Plan
Rio Vista Municipal Airport Plan

Solano ALUC Commissioners:
The Commission consists of 9 members who are appointed to serve four-year terms and must be a county resident. Five members that are appointed by the Board of Supervisors are from each supervisorial district, one member from each city containing an airport (Rio Vista and Vacaville), and one member from the City of Vallejo appointed by the Selection Committee of mayors. Five of the total membership must have aviation expertise.   Members are not financially compensated.  Commission Bylaws can be found here.
