Kathy Pedrini, LivermoreÂ
At this week s Livermore Airport Commission meeting, I submitted the following question, âThere seems to be more and more traffic taking off and landing at LVK outside of the voluntary curfew hours. For example, on April 30, a plane took off at 3:44 a.m.! I have FlightAware and can see (and hear) this traffic. Was this a one off, or are local residents going to have to live with this happening more and more frequently?âÂ
The replies I got at the meeting were, LVK doesn t have a curfew, We can t do anything about this, and We d have to read the minds of the pilots. Â

The Livermore Airport Commission heard a verbal update Monday about the proposal to relocate the corporate offices of Oakland-based charter airliner KaiserAir to the Livermore Municipal Airport, which would also include the development of air facilities that could accommodate Boeing 737s.
Still in its early stages, KaiserAir is currently working with city building and planning staff on completing a planning general application to submit to the city’s planning division, according to assistant airport manager Sean Moran. There is no deadline associated with the application; however, the project can’t move ahead to the Planning Commission or to City Council until the documents are submitted.
LIVERMORE â Objections to a possible expansion of the Livermore Municipal Airport (LVK) have surfaced, with rumblings of discontent present at city council meetings throughout the Tri-Valley. A new group has formed to oppose it.
Since the Livermore Airport Commission approved KaiserAirâs development plans on Feb. 8, Pleasanton resident Kamal Aggarwal teamed up with an advocacy group of Tri-Valley residents calling itself Say No to Livermore Airport Expansion. KaiserAir would add Boeing 737s to the LVK runway.
While David Decoteau, the former airport manager, stated that KaiserAir estimates two aircraft would conduct two landings and two takeoffs per week, Aggarwal s group cites concerns that once the expansion is built, it will not be legally possible to place a cap on the number of flights. Several public speakers have dialed into public meetings at city councils around the Tri-Valley to voice dismay over the noise impact.
