CHAPTER 2 POLICIES<br />

(b) Limitations of state real estate transfer disclosure law. State law applies to existing development,<br />

but not to all transactions (see Policy 3.4.6).<br />

(c) Need for continuity of notification to future property owners and tenants. To the extent<br />

that the ALUC sets notification requirements for new development, the policy<br />

should ensure that the notification runs with the land and is provided to prospective<br />

future owners and tenants.<br />

(d) Inappropriateness of avigation easement dedication solely for buyer awareness purposes.<br />

Avigation easements involve conveyance of property rights from the property<br />

owner to the party owning the easement and are thus best suited to locations where<br />

land use restrictions for noise, safety, or airspace protection purposes are necessary.<br />

Property rights conveyance is not needed for buyer awareness purposes.<br />

3.4.5. Recorded Overflight Notification: As a condition for local agency approval of residential land<br />

use development within the primary overflight area indicated on Map 5, an overflight notification<br />

shall be recorded.<br />

(a) The notification shall contain the language dictated by state law with regard to real estate<br />

transfer disclosure (see Policy 3.4.6(c)) and shall be of a format similar to that indicated<br />

in Appendix G.<br />

(b) The notification shall be evident to prospective purchasers of the property and shall<br />

appear on the property deed.<br />

(c) A separate recorded overflight notification is not required where an avigation easement<br />

is provided.<br />

(d) Recording of an overflight notification is not required for nonresidential development.<br />

3.4.6. State Law Requirements Regarding Real Estate Transfer Disclosure: Effective January 1, 2004,<br />

California state statutes (Business and Professions Code Section 11010 and Civil Code<br />

Sections 1102.6, 1103.4, and 1353) require that, as part of many residential real estate<br />

transactions, information be disclosed regarding whether the property is situated within an<br />

airport influence area.<br />

(a) These state requirements apply to the sale or lease of newly subdivided lands and condominium<br />

conversions and to the sale of certain existing residential property. In general,<br />

airport proximity disclosure is required with existing residential property transfer<br />

only when certain natural conditions (earthquake, fire, or flood hazards) warrant disclosure.<br />

(b) The statutes define an airport influence area as ―the area in which current or future airport-related<br />

noise, overflight, safety, or airspace protection factors may significantly affect<br />

land uses or necessitate restrictions on those uses as determined by an airport land<br />

use commission.‖ The <strong>Yuba</strong> and Sutter county areas within which the ALUC deems<br />

airport proximity disclosure to be appropriate for the <strong>Yuba</strong> <strong>County</strong> <strong>Airport</strong> is identified<br />

on Map 5, <strong>Compatibility</strong> Policy Map: Overflight.<br />

(c) Where disclosure is required, the state statutes dictate that the following statement<br />

shall be provided:<br />

NOTICE OF AIRPORT IN VICINITY: This property is presently located in<br />

the vicinity of an airport, within what is known as an airport influence area. For<br />

that reason, the property may be subject to some of the annoyances or inconven-<br />
