My name is Russell Stevenson.| live in Seattle and operate my. .
business in the City of SeaTac. | am an event promoter of MTB races
at N SeaTac Park, a Port owned property that has recently
been targeted for development. | hold a lease with the City of
SeaTac. | am one for 5 different user groups that occupy N SeaTac
park on a weekly basis. My Wed evening MTB events attract an avg.
200 cyclists nightly, from ages 5 -75, for 20 weeks a
year. 2019 will
be our 6th consecutive season.

Our impact on this piece of community land has been nothing but
positive. The relationship with the City and other park user groups
continues to strengthen. We foster parents and children to come
and participate in healthy exercise and forest stewardship. The
cycling scene is vibrant here, engaging the surrounding residence,
local businesses and schools. We are stewards of this
space, having
helped reactivate what was once a "dump". | strongly urge the Port to
find an alternative to the SeaTac Airport Master Plan that would break
it's lease with the City and reacquire this property for Airport parking
development.

One of the SAMP primary objectives is to reduce environmental
impacts. As the "S" stands for in SAMP,building parking lots on an
active recreational corridor and green space is
not sustainable practice. The Port's own Airport Community Ecology
Fund(ACE) was build to protect such green spaces and long term
forest stewardship within the communities the airport impacts most.
None are more close to the runways than N SeaTac Park.
Furthermore,this property was originally acquired(with federal
money) as a noise buffer for runway 3. Cement and storage buildings
will only amplify aircraft noise. | would hope the Port understand the
social value of this community space outweighs the potential
development value.

| offer some parking alternatives -
1)  Build a multi-level parking garage on the existing Employee
parking lot to the direct north of Hyw. 518.
2) Utilize existing parking space to the west of Des Monies
Memorial Dr.
3) Develop the unused Airport land to the south of 188th, the
closed Tyee golf course and surrounding area.

Thank you
