§ 2.7-2. Permitted—Prohibited Uses

The AC Districts are "overlay" zones. As such, the "underlying" or primary district determines permitted uses. However, these regulations are intended to temper and modify the use and development standards of the primary district to the extent necessary to achieve the stated purpose of these districts, as stated in Section 1.2. To that end, applicable primary district regulations are hereby amended to prohibit the following:

In All Airport Compatibility Zones

Any use that would:

1.

Create electrical interference with navigational signals or radio communication between the airport and aircraft;

2.

Diminish the ability of pilots to distinguish between airport lights and other lights;

3.

Result in glare in the eyes of pilots using the airport;

4.

Impair visibility in the vicinity of the airport;

5.

Create bird strike hazards, or endanger or interfere with the landing, takeoff, or maneuvering of aircraft intending to use the airport.
