Planning and Zoning Commission Minutes <br />December 16, 1993 <br /> <br />Page <br /> <br />Flight hours will be limited the between 30 minutes <br />before sunrise to 30 minutes after sunset, and <br /> <br />3. The airstrip will remain grass only. <br /> <br />With these conditions in place, the staff recommends approval of this petition. <br /> <br />The Chair asked Mr. Marshall about recommendation number 1 about the airstrip <br />being limited to no more than 5 separate ultralights, as defined by the FAA. She <br />asked does that mean that at any one time there could not be more than 5 that <br />would be tied down. <br /> <br />Mr. Marshall said that is correct. It would be limited to 5, not 5 different <br />separate days. <br /> <br />Mr. Sherrill Laney, Petitioner, addressed the Board stating that their <br />understanding of these conditions is there will be no more than 5 vehicles based <br />at the strip. Mr. Laney said there is no fuel storage, no sanitary facility, no <br />maintenance facility other than normal hand tools and no degreasing. <br /> <br />The Chair asked Mr. Laney if they had tie down facilities. <br /> <br />Mr. Laney said they have storage facilities. The building will have two aircrafts, <br />which are defined by FAA as vehicles. He said it is an ultralight strip, but the <br />definition of ultralight is in a changing status. Basically what they are saying is <br />they want to use it for aircrafts of 1,200 pounds of gross weight or less. <br /> <br />Mr. Amos asked Mr. Marshall if he has any kind of document from those owners <br />agreeing to this rezoning. <br /> <br />Mr. Marshall said all of our rezoning petitions require a notarized signature by <br />the owners. <br /> <br />Mr. Amos said on purpose, it says "single-family detached homes" in the ARR. <br />He asked if that would it be conducive to multi-family? <br /> <br />Mr. Marshall said no it is just using our own line item statement. The purpose <br />of that is that they do not want to remove their rights to at some point not have <br />this airstrip. If we were to define this only for an airstrip, then that zoning could <br />hold them to just that in the future, and they would have to rezone to remove the <br />airstrip and develop the property. <br /> <br /> <br />
