NOTES: ft = feet 1. An area located within more than one airport zone shall be subject to the more restrictive height limit required. An area within an APO air park zone is also subject to any more restrictive height limits applicable in the
base zoning district
, planned development district, or other overlay district applicable to the area.
2. The Primary Zone extends to 200 ft beyond the end of the existing runway or any extension of the runway proposed in the Pompano Beach Air Park Master Plan, as updated and amended. | ||||
Figure 155.3707.B: Air Park Zones
Air Park land use compatibility zoning means Air Park zoning regulations governing the use of land on, adjacent to or in the immediate vicinity of the Air Park as a means for governing Air Park hazards. The City shall provide a copy of these regulations and any amendments to these regulations to FDOT for review within 30-days of adoption. In the event of conflict between the Air Park overlay zoning regulations adopted herein and any other regulations applicable to the same area, the more stringent limitation or requirement shall prevail.
1. Air Park Hazards Prohibited
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Code no Air Park hazard shall occur on land or water within any Air Park zone (as established in Section 155.3707.B, Air Park Zones and Height Limits).
2. Development Order for Air Park Obstruction Required
A property owner proposing to construct, alter, or allow an obstruction within the APO shown in Figure 155.3707.B or FXE airspace shown in Figure 155.3707.D must apply for a Development Order for an obstruction from the appropriate jurisdiction. If the obstruction permit application is for changes to an existing, nonconforming obstruction that has been abandoned or is more than 80% torn down, destroyed, deteriorated, or decayed, a permit may not be granted if it would allow the obstruction to exceed the applicable height limit or otherwise deviate from the Air Park protection zoning regulations. Whether or not an application is made for a permit under this subsection, the owner of the nonconforming obstruction may be required, at his or her own expense, to lower, remove, reconstruct, alter, or equip such obstruction as may be necessary to conform to the current Air Park protection zoning regulations. If the owner of the nonconforming obstruction neglects or refuses to comply with such requirement for 10 days after notice, the City may proceed to have the obstruction lowered, removed, reconstructed, altered, or equipped and assess the cost and expense to the owner of the obstruction or land whereon it is or was located.
a. Obstruction Marking and Lighting
A property owner for which a Development Order for Air Park Obstruction has been approved shall be required to install, operate, and maintain thereon, at his or her own expense, marking and lighting in conformance with the specific standards established by the Federal Aviation Administration.
b. Obstruction Construction or Alteration Notification
A property owner for which a Development Order for Air Park Obstruction has been approved shall submit to the Development Services Director documentation showing compliance with the federal requirement for notification of proposed construction or alteration of structures and a valid aeronautical study.
3. Locational Restrictions on Incompatible Land Uses
The Pompano Air Park is subject to a Part 150 noise study completed in conformance with 14 C.F.R., part 150. Incompatible uses, as established in 14 C.F.R. part 150, Appendix A, are prohibited within the noise contours established by the noise study except if such uses are specifically contemplated by such study with appropriate mitigation or similar techniques described in the study.
4. Restrictions for Landfills and Other Uses Which Attract Birds.
a. Restricted Locations. New landfills and other uses which store, handle, or process organic or any other materials that foster or harbor the growth of insects, rodents, amphibians, or other similar organisms, in such a way as to significantly increase the potential for aircraft bird strike hazard to aircraft operations are restricted within the following areas:
i. Within 10,000 feet from the nearest point of any runway used or planned to be used by turbine aircraft.
ii. Within 5,000 feet from the nearest point of any runway used by only nonturbine aircraft.
iii. Outside the perimeters defined in subsections i. and ii. above, but still within the lateral limits of the civil airport imaginary surfaces defined in 14 C.F.R. s. 77.19.
b. Bird Management Techniques. Uses subject to the restricted locations in subsection a(iii) may be permitted within the listed locations provided the applicant submits a Bird Management Technique plan which effectively demonstrates techniques and practices which will be used to minimize bird hazards.
5. New incompatible uses, activities, or substantial modifications to existing incompatible uses shall not be permitted within Runway Protection Zones (RPZ). The Airport Property Map for the Air Park dated 3-20-14 on file with the City of Pompano Beach shows the RPZs do not impact any land designated or zoned for residential or educational uses.
D. Airport Hazard Areas in Multiple Political Subdivisions
1. If an airport is owned or controlled by a political subdivision and if any airport hazard area appertaining to such airport is located wholly or partly outside the territorial limits of said political subdivision, the political subdivision owning or controlling the airport and the political subdivision within which the airport hazard area is located and that has land upon which an obstruction may be constructed or altered which underlies any surface of the airport as provided in 14 C.F.R., Part 77, subpart C, the political subdivision shall either:
a. By interlocal agreement, in accordance with the provisions of chapter 163, adopt, administer, and enforce a set of airport protection zoning regulations applicable to the airport hazard area in question; or
b. By ordinance, regulation, or resolution duly adopted, create a joint airport protection zoning board that shall adopt, administer, and enforce a set of airport zoning regulations. The joint airport protection zoning board shall have as voting members two representatives appointed by each participating political subdivision and a chair elected by a majority of the members so appointed. Airport manager or a representative of each airport in the affected participating political subdivisions shall serve on the board in a nonvoting capacity.
2. Fort Lauderdale Executive (FXE) Airport Airspace
The height restrictions associated with the FXE controlled airspace is shown below in Figure 155.3707.D. If the City of Pompano Beach receives a proposal to construct or alter a structure with a proposed height of 75% or more of the allowable FXE Zone height limit, the applicant will be required to submit to the FXE Airport Manager an obstruction permit or an issuance of a finding of no obstruction prior to issuance of any development order for the proposed structure by Pompano Beach.
