Chapter 17C.180 Airfield Overlay Zones

Section 17C.180.010 Purpose and Intent
  1. The purpose of the airfield overlay zones is to protect the viability of the Spokane International Airport and Felts Field as significant resources to the community by encouraging compatible land uses and densities, reducing hazards to lives and properties, and ensuring a safe and secure flying environment.
     
  2. These overlay zones are in addition to existing zoning districts. Where the overlay zones and/or portions thereof are shown outside of the current City limits it is meant to be advisory to adjacent jurisdictions until such time as said areas are annexed into and become part of the City.
     
  3. The airfield overlay zones modify the density and land use standards of the underlying zoning districts. These modifications provide protection to the public, health, safety, and general welfare of the community, airport users, and citizens working and residing within the airfield overlay zones.
