It is unlawful for any person to engage in any business or commercial activity on the airport without a lease approved by the council, or a sublease from a duly authorized master lessee which is approved by the city. For the purposes of this article a “person” means an individual or group of individuals, including a company, partnership, corporation or other association. This prohibition shall also apply to persons who use the airport as a base for conducting their activity but whose office or other place of business is not situated at the airport. This prohibition does not apply to:
A. Aircraft operations in which the flight originates and terminates elsewhere and the airport is utilized as a temporary stopping place for such purposes as landings, refueling, or other aeronautical service, or the embarking or debarking of passengers, except in the case of charter or air taxi airlines;
B. Company or corporate-owned aircraft where personnel or products are transported free of charge, the trip being merely incidental to the company's principal business and not, in itself, a major enterprise for profit;
C. Casual or isolated transactions such as sales by the owner, an owner/pilot giving occasional flight instruction, or the like;
D. No lease or license for the exclusive right to provide an aeronautical service, operation or activity on the airport shall be issued or approved.
