construction is expected to begin in December. Concurrent to the construction at the first ten <br /> homes, the notification and inspection process will commence for the next phase of homes to <br /> be insulated. <br /> 3. Request for Information on Any Expansion Plans FedEx May Have and Volume of <br /> Truck Traffic Generated by Cargo Operations at the Airport. <br /> Port staff reported that FedEx will develop on their current site consistent with the project <br /> approved in the EIR for the existing Airport Development Plan (ADP). They cannot develop <br /> beyond the land they lease from the airport and have not discussed any additional buildings. <br /> Steve Grossman reported that FedEx corporate offices have said that operations at the <br /> Oakland Airport will remain essentially the same as they are now. They do not anticipate <br /> adding any new delivery regions from OAK, although one or two new flights to the Far East <br /> may be added. He believes that the rising cost of fuel could lead to earlier retirement of <br /> older, noisier planes, such as the 727s. <br /> Councilmember Santos commented that FedEx needs to improve their public relations as <br /> their operations relate to San Leandro. Most of the complaints about airport activity are <br /> generated as a result of FedEx operations. Steve Grossman said that he is willing to work <br /> through the San Leandro Chamber of Commerce to see if FedEx can improve their <br /> relationship with the San Leandro community. <br /> Regarding truck traffic, Port staff reported that no new surveys have been done since the <br /> ADP EIR, although this suggestion was put forward in the Master Plan process. The Port is <br /> willing to work with FedEx and City staff to conduct a ground traffic study for cargo <br /> operations at the airport. <br /> 4. Open Forum <br /> Councilmember Santos commented that there will need to be discussions once again about <br /> how to address the noise impacts to the homes on Neptune Drive and to let the homeowners <br /> know about the study that was done regarding a possible soundwall. <br /> Steve Grossman will do an outreach to the Neptune Drive residents before the next Master <br /> Plan open house so they can hear about the soundwall study. <br /> 5. Adjourn <br /> The meeting was adjourned at 1:00 p.m. <br /> 2 <br />
