A.
Purpose. To apply special height and land development standards that
will provide for the orderly growth of Hamilton Municipal Airport
and the area surrounding the airport within the Village of Hamilton
and will safeguard the health, safety, and general welfare of the
inhabitants within the vicinity of the airport, the flying public,
and the public in general.
B.
It is hereby determined that an airport hazard endangers the lives
and property of users of airports, and the health, safety, and welfare
of property or occupants of land in its vicinity, and also, if of
the obstruction type or of the incompatible use type, in effect reduces
the size of the area available for landing, takeoff and maneuvering
of aircraft, thus tending to destroy or impair the utility of airports
and the public investment therein. Accordingly, it is hereby declared
that:
(1)
The creation or establishment of an airport hazard is a public nuisance
and an injury to the region served by the airport;
(2)
It is necessary in the interest of the public health, public safety,
and general welfare that the creation or establishment of airport
hazards be prevented; and
(3)
The prevention of these hazards should be accomplished, to the extent
legally possible, by the exercise of the police power without compensation.
C.
Airport Noise Overlay Zone.
(1)
The Airport Noise Overlay Zone is effective as shown on the Airport
Zoning Map on file in the Hamilton Village office.
(2)
Within the Airport Noise Overlay Zone, the following uses are restricted:
(a)
Residential use.
(b)
Commercial uses, except those constructed with air circulation
systems and at least 35 dB of noise level reduction (NLR).
(c)
Institutional uses such as schools, hospitals, churches, and
rest homes.
(d)
Hotels and motels, except those constructed with air circulation
systems and at least 35 dB of noise level reduction (NLR) in sleeping
areas.
(e)
Outdoor recreational uses, except golf courses, riding stables
and water recreation and then only when 30 dB of noise level reduction
is achieved in indoor areas where the public is received.
D.
Airport obstruction zones. Airport obstruction zones are effective
as shown on the Airport Zoning Map on file in the Hamilton Village
office. No structure or tree shall be erected, altered, allowed to
grow, or be maintained in any Airport Overlay Zone to a height in
excess of the specified height limitation.
(1)
Primary surface. A surface longitudinally centered on the runway
center line and extending 200 feet beyond the end of the runway with
the same elevation as the nearest point on the runway center line.
(2)
Approach Zone (AZ). A two-hundred-fifty-foot zone running on both
sides of the runway center line and expanding outward uniformly to
a width of 2,000 feet at a distance of 5,000 feet from the ends of
the primary surface. The height limitation in the AZ slopes upward
one foot vertically for each 20 feet horizontally, beginning at the
same elevation as the primary surface and extending to a horizontal
distance of 5,000 feet along the extended runway center line.
(3)
Transitional Zone (TZ). A surface of inclined planes parallel to
the runway center line, beginning at the edges of the primary surface.
The inclined planes extend upward and outward from the sides of the
primary surface to the horizontal surface 150 feet above the airport
elevation and from the sides of the approach surface at a 7:1 slope
(for every seven feet in a horizontal direction, the rise is one foot).
Within the transitional zone, no object may extend above the surface
of the transitional plane as described above.
(4)
Horizontal Zone (HZ). An area, the perimeter of which is constructed
by swinging arcs of specified radii from a point on the center line
and 200 feet beyond each end of each runway and connecting the adjacent
arcs by lines tangent to those arcs. The radius of each arc is 5,000
feet. The horizontal zone does not include the approach and transitional
zones. The height limitation within the horizontal zone is 1,282 feet
(150 feet above the primary surface).
A.
Purpose. To apply special standards on areas in which backup water
resources of the Village are located.
B.
Description. The Conservation Overlay District includes all land
within the Village that is within 100 feet of Woodman Pond.
D.
Procedures and controls. The only uses permitted within the Conservation
Zone are public park or recreation; nature trails, as well as Village
structures, police shooting range, and storage.
