Latest version.
  • (a)

    Safety zones. To carry out the purpose of this ordinance as set forth above and also to restrict those uses which may be hazardous to the operational safety of aircraft operating to and from the False River Air Park, and furthermore to limit population and building density in the runway approach areas, thereby creating sufficient open space so as to protect life and property in case of an accident, there are hereby created and established the following land use safety zones:

    (1)

    Safety zone A: All land in that portion of the approach zones of each runway, as defined in subsection III(a) hereof, which extends outward from the end of primary surface to the intersection with the highway right-of-way on each end of the runway. Furthermore, all lands within the approach surface defining safety zone A lying west of the right-of-way of the airport access road from LA 1 are excluded.

    (2)

    Safety zone B: All land in that portion of the approach zones of a runway, as defined in subsection III(a) hereof, which extends outward from safety zone A. Safety zone B begins at the highway right-of-way that marks the edge of safety zone A. The outer edge of safety zone B is two-thirds the length of the runway measured from the edge of the primary surface from each end of the runway.

    (3)

    Safety zone C: All that land which is enclosed within the perimeter of the horizontal zone, as defined in subsection III(a) hereof, and which is not included in zone A or zone B.

    (b)

Permitted uses may include, but are not limited to, such uses as agriculture (seasonal crops), horticulture, animal husbandry, raising of livestock, wildlife habitat, light outdoor recreation (nonspectator), cemeteries, and auto parking.
