This chapter provides regulations for development and new land uses in the overlay zoning districts established by Section 16.16.020 (Zoning districts established).
(Prior code § 16-240.010)
A.
Purpose. The overlay zoning districts established by this
chapter provide requirements for development and new land uses that
are in addition to the standards and regulations for the primary zoning
district, because of the important site, neighborhood, or compatibility
issues unique to a particular area.
B.
Applicability. The applicability of any overlay zoning district to specific sites is shown by the overlay Zoning Map symbol established by Section 16.16.020 (Zoning districts established), being appended as a suffix to the symbol for the primary zoning district on the Zoning Map (for example, IH-AIR). The provisions of this chapter apply to proposed land uses and development in addition to all other applicable requirements of this Development Code.
(Prior code § 16-240.020)
A.
Purpose. The -AIR overlay district provides height limits
for structures in the vicinity of the Stockton Metropolitan Airport,
based upon specific zones or surfaces defined in the air space above
the airport and its surroundings, in compliance with State law, and
the Federal Aviation Regulations, Volume XI, Part 77, established
by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
B.
Findings. The Council hereby finds that a structure or other
ground feature which obstructs air space near the Stockton Metropolitan
Airport has the potential for endangering the lives and property of
users of the airport, and property or occupants on land in the airport
vicinity; and that an obstruction may reduce the size of areas available
for aircraft takeoff, landing, and maneuvers, thereby tending to impair
the usability of the airport and the public investment in the facility.
C.
Applicability. The requirements of this overlay district shall apply to any area identified as an –AIR overlay district. The -AIR overlay district may be combined with any residential, commercial, industrial, or special purpose zoning district established by Section 16.16.020 (Zoning districts established). The -AIR overlay district is established, and shall be applied and shown on the Zoning Map to all areas covered by:
1.
The airport zones established by subsection G of this section (Airport zones), following, in the air space above and around the airport, in compliance with the Federal Aviation Regulations, Volume XI, Part 77, of the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA); and
2.
Any
additional safety areas surrounding the airport identified in the
Stockton Metropolitan Airport Land Use Plan.
D.
Allowed Land Uses. Any land use normally allowed in the primary
zoning district by this division may be allowed within the -AIR overlay
district subject to the following requirements.
1.
Consistency With Applicable Plans. The proposed use shall
be consistent with the Stockton Metropolitan Airport Land Use Plan.
2.
Interference With Aircraft Prohibited. No use shall be allowed
under or within an -AIR overlay district that may:
a.
Create electrical interference with aircraft communications;
b.
Make it difficult for pilots to distinguish between airport lights
and other lights;
c.
Result in glare in the eyes of the pilots using the airport;
d.
Impair visibility in the vicinity of the airport; or
e.
Otherwise endanger the landing, takeoff, or maneuvering of aircraft.
3.
Public Assembly Uses Prohibited. No residential use, or public
assembly use (for example, churches, hospitals, schools, temporary
events, theaters, etc.) except air shows, shall be allowed within
an inner 10,000-foot section of any precision instrument approach
surface.
E.
Permit Requirements. Development and new land uses within
the -AIR overlay district shall obtain the land use permits required
by this division for the primary zoning district.
F.
Development Standards. Development and new land uses within the -AIR overlay district shall comply with all applicable requirements of the primary zoning district, and the height limits established for structures by subsection H of this section (Airport zone height limitations).
G.
Airport Zones. This Subsection establishes airport zones to
be applied to all land beneath the approach surfaces, transitional
surfaces, horizontal surfaces, and conical surfaces as they apply
to the Stockton Metropolitan Airport.
1.
Airport Zoning Map. The airport zones established by this
section are shown in the Airport Land Use Plan 1993, on the map entitled "Stockton Metro Airport - Airport Land Use
Zones."
2.
Interpretation of Map. An area located in more than one of
the airport zones established by this section shall be considered
to be only in the zone with the more restrictive height limitation.
3.
Airport Zones Established. The following airport zones are
hereby established and defined as follows:
a.
Precision Instrument Runway Approach Zone. The inner
edge of this approach zone shall coincide with the width of the primary
surface and is 1,000 feet wide. The approach zone expands outward
uniformly to a width of 16,000 feet at a horizontal distance of 50,000
feet from the primary surface. The center line of this zone is the
continuation of the center line of the runway.
b.
Transitional Zones. The transitional zones shall be
the areas beneath the transitional surfaces.
c.
Horizontal Zone. The horizontal zone is established
by swinging arcs of 5,000-foot radius for all runways designated utility
or visual, and 10,000 feet for all others, from the center of each
end of the primary surface of each runway and connecting the adjacent
arcs by drawing lines tangent to those arcs. The horizontal zone does
not include the approach and transitional zones.
d.
Conical Zone. The conical zone is established as the
area that commences at the periphery of the horizontal zone and extends
outward from the horizontal zone a distance of 4,000 feet.
H.
Airport Zone Height Limitations. No structure shall be erected, altered, or maintained, and no tree shall be allowed to grow in any of the airport zones established in subsection G of this section (Airport zones), to a height in excess of the following height limits. For the purposes of this section, the airport elevation shall be 30 feet above mean sea level.
1.
Precision Instrument Runway Approach Zone. The height limit
shall follow a slope which:
a.
Extends 50 feet outward for each foot upward, beginning at the end
of, and at the same elevation as, the primary surface, and extending
to a horizontal distance of 10,000 feet along the extended runway
centerline; and
b.
Then follows a slope of 40 feet outward for each foot upward, to
an additional horizontal distance of 40,000 feet along the extended
runway centerline.
2.
Transitional Zones.
a.
The height limits for the transitional zones shall follow a slope
which extends seven feet outward for each foot upward, beginning at
the sides of, and at the same elevation as, the primary surface and
the approach surface, to a height of 150 feet above the airport elevation.
b.
The height limits for the transitional zones shall also follow a
slope which extends seven feet outward for each foot upward, beginning
at the sides of, and at the same elevation as, the approach surface,
and extending to where they intersect the conical surface.
c.
Where the precision instrument runway approach zone projects beyond
the conical zone, the height limit shall follow a slope which extends
seven feet outward for each foot upward, beginning at the sides of,
and at the same elevation as, the approach surface, and extending
a horizontal distance of 5,000 feet, measured at 90 degree angles
to the extended runway centerline.
3.
Horizontal Zone. The height limit shall be 150 feet above
the airport elevation, or 180 feet above mean sea level.
4.
Conical Zone. The height limit shall follow a slope of 20
feet outward for each foot upward, beginning at the periphery of the
horizontal zone and at 150 feet above the airport elevation and extending
to a height of 350 feet above the airport elevation.
5.
Exceptions to Height Limitations. Nothing in this section
shall be construed to prohibit the construction or maintenance of
any structure, or the growth of any tree to a maximum height of 50
feet.
6.
Variances. Variances to the provisions of this section may be requested and shall be processed in compliance with Chapter 16.172 (Variances), with the following exceptions.
a.
Referral. The Director shall refer any application for
a variance to the provisions of this section to the Manager of the
Stockton Metropolitan Airport and the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) for a determination as to the effect of the proposal on the
operation of air navigation facilities and the efficient use of navigable
airspace.
b.
Basis and Findings for Approval. The findings required by Section 16.172.050 (Findings and decision) shall apply to variances requested in compliance with this section. The Commission shall approve a variance to the provisions of this section where it is determined in addition to the findings in Section 16.172.050 that a literal application or enforcement of this section will result in unnecessary hardship, and that an approved variance will:
i.
Not be contrary to the public interest;
ii.
Not create a hazard to air navigation; and
iii.
Be in compliance with the spirit of these provisions.
|
If the Airport Manager or the FAA does not respond to the referral
of the variance application within 30 days of receipt, the Commission
may act to approve or disapprove the application.
|
I.
Nonconforming Uses.
1.
Regulations Not Retroactive. The requirements of this section
shall not require the removal, lowering, or other change or alteration
to any structure or tree that is not in compliance with this section
as of the effective date of the ordinance codified in this Development
Code, or otherwise interfere with the continuance of a nonconforming
use.
2.
Marking and Lighting. The owner of any existing nonconforming
structure or tree shall be required to permit the installation, operation,
and maintenance thereon of markers and lights that are deemed necessary
by the Manager of the Stockton Metropolitan Airport to alert the operators
of aircraft in the vicinity of the airport to the presence of an airport
obstruction. These markers and lights shall be installed, operated,
and maintained at the expense of the Stockton Metropolitan Airport.
(Prior code § 16-240.030)
A.
Purpose. The channel area (-CHA) overlay district, as defined
in Division 8, is intended to ensure physical and visual public accessibility
to and along the waterfront, protection of natural resources along
the waterfront, and promote walkable uses and mixed- use residential
development by limiting certain activities in conformance with the
Waterfront Connections Plan and the General Plan.
B.
Applicability. The -CHA overlay zoning district may be combined with any zoning district established by Section 16.16.020 (Zoning districts established) within the district boundaries. The provisions of this section shall govern the -CHA overlay district. In the event of any perceived conflict between the provisions of this section and any other provision of this Development Code, this section shall control.
C.
Use Permit Required. Within the -CHA overlay zoning district, no structure shall be added to, constructed, erected, or enlarged; no use shall be enlarged, extended, or intensified; no new use of premises shall be introduced; and no former use shall be re-established without a Commission use permit in compliance with Chapter 16.168 (Use Permits).
D.
