Like with any airport, it’s the Federal Aviation Administration’s job to track that noise to see how it will affect the surrounding communities. This Federal Aviation Administration graphic gives examples of common sounds at various decibel levels. Luke AFB was founded during World War II to train pilot and today is the world’s leader in training for the F-35 Lightning II fighter jet. “So a bit of Surprise in the north and a bit of Goodyear on the south,” Mr. Friedman predicts commercial developments like the ones in Surprise’s Prasada neighborhoods will creep south to the northern parts of Loop 303 in Glendale that are less affected by noise from Luke AFB. While he predicts industrial complexes like the ones in Goodyear will creep north up Loop 303 into south Glendale, Mr. Glendale’s portion of Loop 303 won’t be all warehouses though. “There’s a lot of inbound interest for us, and we’ll see interest baring out now in between six- and eight-month cycles.” Depending on the type of company, businesses could start building on the land in between six and 18 months from now. There is pent-up demand for businesses wanting to develop along Loop 303 now that the area will finally receive utility services, Mr. The city of Glendale does not provide water and sewer services west of 115th Avenue, which has stymied growth in the area, but the main utility provider in the area, EPCOR Utilities, recently completed a sewer treatment facility in the area and is in the process of laying down its main sewer lines to service the area. The transformation is expected to start soon. “Glendale’s really poised to benefit heavily right north of Camelback Road on the 303,” said Glendale’s economic development director Brian Friedman.
However, many of the new developments in west Glendale will have a particularly noisy neighbor - Luke Air Force Base.īecause of land use laws created due to the noise of fighter jets flying in and out of Luke AFB, the city plans to turn the southern part Glendale’s stretch of Loop 303 into an industrial complex hub. While the city has been built out to the north, dozens of square miles of unannexed and undeveloped land remain to the west. Glendale’s final frontier is to the west.
