Complaint System Mr. Mike Stenson, Deputy Director of Airports, provided the following report relating to the Noise Complaint System: e Received 50 noise comments from 10 distinctly different household since activation of Noise Complaint System on September 5, 2014 e 27 comments filed were related to propeller aircraft; 14 comments were helicopter related; 6 were for jet-related activity; 3 comments for unknown aircraft type All 50 complaints were from the City of Destin e 27 comments were from one location; 7 complaints from another location Half the number of complaints came from areas adjacent to the airport; 5 complaints from outlying areas; 18 complaints came from clusters in the north area of the airport runway; 29 complaints originated from the Indian Trail arca (27 of which came from one household at Indian Trail); 18 complaints from areas adjacent to the airport runway at north end Committee member 1zzo commented it would be difficult to make any kind of decision with regards to the problem areas when more than half the number of complaints was coming from a single household. Mr. Harman stated in standard deviation, this type of data will not be considered as part of the overall analysis. Their goal is to identify the true impact locations. Right now they are just collecting data, and that they want 12 months of current data because they were working under documents developed in 2007/2008 timeframe. Committee member Barr stated they need to get the information out and possibly schedule a meeting to explain the concept of the complaint system to a larger group of people, they could probably get more people to actually use the complaint system Mr. Harman noted this committee had previously discussed this issue and that he had committed a budget amount for getting the word out about the complaint system. He also stated that the City has the resources to reach out to its own citizens better than the County. Committee member Stapleton stated that producing some things like door hangers or magnetic items on the refrigerator advertising the Complaint System should come in handy. Mr. Harman stated they could produce such items and ask the City to disseminate them to its citizens. Committee member Barr moved to allow the County to provide the items advertising the complaint system and provide them to the City to be distributed to residents impacted by noise coming frem the airport; seconded by Committee member Izzo. Motion passed 5-0.
