that would include a hockey arena, hotels, apartments, restaurants and shops on 46 acres of city-owned land on the south bank of the dry Salt River, near Rio Salado Parkway and Priest Drive.
The proposed development would be located within two miles of the airport and where noise levels are heavily affected by air traffic, Girvin wrote, adding that FAA policy states that residential development near such an area is incompatible land use. The FAA ruled at the time that a stadium on the site would create a hazard for aircraft flying over the area. The proposal was later dropped in favor of a Glendale site, and State Farm Stadium became the Cardinals' home.
Sky Harbor spokesperson Heather Shelbrack said the difference is that Chase Field and other developments west of the airport are not under any flight paths and not within the area where noise is an issue.
