(A) The principal purpose of this subchapter is to provide land use planners with guidelines for appropriately dealing with the reality that the existence of the County Airport, and the conduct of flight operations from that airport, are of such nature as to require careful consideration and the exercise of a special and comprehensive evaluation process in connection with any proposed rezoning and subsequent development in the vicinity of the airport. This is in the interests of assuring, to the extent possible, that any such rezoning and/or subsequent developments and the airport will be compatible each with the other, and that neither will be inimical to the interests of the other.
(B) Purposes subservient to this principal purpose include:
(1) To establish and define the boundaries (external boundary and internal sub-boundaries) of the AOZ created by this subchapter within which such special evaluation processes shall apply;
(2) To establish uniform standards and requirements that shall apply to any proposed developments within the AOZ, whether on or off airport; and
(3) To establish standards for permitted and conditional uses (both on and off airport), and to establish appropriate use restrictions.
