POINT LOMA — The Peninsula Community Planning Board (PCPB) voted unanimously Sept. 16 to create a temporary Airport Technical Advisory Subcommittee that will work with state Sen. Christine Kehoe to create a proposal for a state audit of Lindbergh Field. The creation of the subcommittee came in response to a letter Kehoe wrote to the PCPB Sept. 13 regarding the board’s August request for a state audit of the airport and its flight departure headings that take jets directly over Peninsula neighborhoods. “The selection process [for audits] is rigorous,” Kehoe wrote, “which is why gathering data from the local Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) staff and the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority on how incoming an exiting flights at Lindbergh Field are monitored is important.” Kehoe explained in the letter that any request for a state audit would have to take place in December, when the next legislative session begins again. Then, Kehoe would bring the request before the State Audit Committee, which would then engage the state auditor. For more information on PCPB issues, visit www.pcpb.net.
