1.
Intent. The intent of the AIR Airport District is to provide appropriate
development standards for the airport on US Route 30 so that it may
operate as a limited general aviation facility in a manner that is
consistent with its strategic location within the Township's
central-west designated growth area and compatible with other land
uses in the northwestern quadrant of the municipality.
