FAA-NACo Airport Land Use Compatibility Webinar

Wednesday, December 10, 2025 | 3:00 p.m. - 4:300 p.m. ET

Counties play a crucial role in our nation’s aviation system, owning and operating hundreds of airports across the country. And even in places where the county may not own the airport, county planning departments and development organizations work to maximize the value of this asset to the community’s economic and overall wellbeing. Join NACo and staff from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Office of Airports Planning and Programming to learn more about the FAA’s “Advisory Circular on Airport Land Use Compatibility Planning,” which will enable counties work smarter to integrate airports into broader planning efforts for land use, economic development and more. FAA staff will also be available to answer questions from county leaders about planning needs in their community and how the Advisory Circular can guide those efforts. 

Speakers: 
  • Jacqueline Essick, Associate Director, Jacobsen|Daniels
  • Amber McNair, Founder & Principal Investigator, AV McNair, LLC
  • Michael (Mike) Hines, Manager of Airports Planning and Environmental Division, FAA
  • Jean Wolfers-Lawrence, Manager of Environmental Planning Branch, FAA
