PUBLIC HEARING ZONE CHANGE MARTIN ETAL PB 483-6: A zone change has been requested on Lots 7 through 15, Block 21, Laurel Realty, 2nd Subdivision (entire half block facing 1st Avenue), from R6000 zone to allow Residential Professional (RP). One owner proposes a dental clinic. The properties are located at or near 519 1st Avenue, Laurel. Jack Martin wishes to sell three lots to.Dr. Michael Wheeler who wants to build a clinic on three lots at 519 lst Avenue. Alleges some precedent in Hoklin Clinic south corner at 1st Avenue and 4th Street. Dr. Wheeler has no specific immediate plans. Cumin Associates says 2.07 acres are required for zone change. Places-presently in place were before passage of zoning ordinance. Planner insists the board cannot act contrary to ordinance 17.32.020. Opponents: John.M. Strecker lives opposite-site and wants to know about increases in traffic. First Avenue is busy enough. Mrs. Hackert Phillips said at a council meeting of several years ago she heard that the objective is to keep 1st Avenue residential above 3rd Avenue. Bobbie Lefler spoke against as did Russell Stadalman who lives directly behind. Harold Williams of 519..Montana spoke about desirability of keeping area residential. Mr. Martin rebutted that this is Residential Professional, not commercial. Mrs. Phillips owns property being used as commercial within a block or so of site. 0 Mr. Williams suggested that this may be a "foot in the door" to wider development.. Mrs. Phillips says.her house is readily convertible to a house. Mr. Shay of the Planning Board suggested that Residential Professional zone has narrowly permitted uses. Motion from Gerald Shay to deny, seconded by Ed LaPrath. Mr. LaPrath sited 24th Street West in Billings as a problem • area and suggested to approve would create problems. Mr. Bradley said problem there was only one side of street was zoned and the other side of street is suing. Motion carried. This is a recommendation that will now go to Council for public hearing on May 17th. page 3 Planning Board minutes April 14, 1983 HOME OCCUPATIONS: Michael N.

Kessler 1009 7th Avenue Laurel, Mt 59044 r" 17.56.010 Intent Specifically, these criteria and guidelines are designed to preserve existing and establish new compatible land uses around air- ports, to allow land use not associated with high population concentration, to minimize exposure of residential uses to critical aircraft noise areas, to avoid danger from aircraft crashes, and to regulate the area around the airport to minimize danger to public health, safety, or property from the operation of the airport; to prevent obstruction to air navigation, and to aid in realizing the goals, objectives, and policies of the Laurel Compre- hensive Plan and the Laurel Airport Master Plan. These guidelines will con- sider among other things: A. The safety of the airport users and persons and property in the vicinity of the airport; B. The character of the flying operations conducted or ex- pected to be conducted at the airport; C. The magnitude and duration of noise produced by aircraft and the number of aircraft flying; D. The nature of the terrain; E. The future development of the airport, and F. The views and mandates of the federal agency charged with the fostering of civil aeronautics as to the aerial surfaces necessary for safe flying operations. (Derivation of section: 67 -6 -201, MCA, 1979) 17.56.001 Definitions For the purpose of this airport zoning ordinance certain words and terms used herein are defined in this chapter. 17.56.005 Airport area of influence is an area encompassing the flight pattern and the area located between the 55 and 65 Ldn contours as de- picted on the Ldn contour map. 17.56.020 Airport elevation is recorded and accepted as 3545 feet above mean sea level (MSL). 17.56.030 Airport property boundary refers to the area presently owned or leased by the City of Laurel for use in the daily operation of the airport. Proposed airport property boundary refers to any areas to be acquired by the City for future development and protection of the facility. 17.56.040 FAR Part 77 (Federal Aviation Regulation) refers to those regulations which delineate imaginary surfaces as designated by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to control the height of objects, both natural and man -made, which may affect navigable airspace around the airport. 17.56.050 Flight patterns are an area one mile on each side of the run- way centerline and one mile off each runway end. It also includes that portion of an area 10,000 feet by 4,000 feet beginning 200 feet off of each end of runway 3 -21 and extending beyond the one mile length. 17.56.060 Ldn (day /night sound level) is the noise measuring system which was utilized to predict the impact and impact area resulting from the present and projected airport operations. The Ldn system that was util- ized describes the environment in terms of contours which connect points of equal noise exposure intensity. (The magnitude of the noise intensity within the 60 Ldn contour is comparable with normal conversation.) 17.56.070 Primary surface is a surface longitudinally centered on a run- way; and extends 200 feet beyond each end of a runway. The primary sur- face is 500 feet wide for runway 3 -21 and 250 feet wide for runway 13 -31. The elevation of any point on the primary surface is the same as the ele- vation of the nearest point on the runway centerline. 17.56.080 Runway layout refers to the orientation of the runways based on magnetic north; the magnetic declination for the field is 16 East. Proposed runway layout includes future extensions on existing runways and new runways not yet constructed. 17.56.090 Structure is an object, including a mobile object, construct- ed or installed by man, including but without limitation, buildings, towers, cranes, smokestacks, earth formations, and overhead transmission lines. 17.56.100 Tree is any object of natural growth. 17.56.110 City- County Planning Board to act as zoning commission -- duties The City- County Planning Board shall act as the airport zoning commission whose duty it shall be to recommend the boundaries of the various original districts, appropriate regulations to be enforced therein, and to propose amendments or changes in either the boundaries or regulations as applicable. (Derivation of section: 67 -6 -202 (2) MCA) 17.56.120 Administration of Regulations and Approval of Uses The regulations shall be administered by the City- County Planning Board which shall also have the authority to approve or disapprove proposed uses within the airport zone unless overruled by the Airport Board within two weeks of the date of the decision made by the City- County Planning Board. 17.56.130 Property covered by these Regulations These regulations will affect the property which lies outside of the airport boundary but inside of the airport area of influence. 17.56.140 Districts Created In order to carry out the intent of these regulations, the Laurel Airport Area of Influence is hereby divided into the following basic airport zones. Ldn Zones Flight patterns 17.56.150 Airport Land Use Map The boundaries of the airport zones are shown on the Laurel Airport Zoning Map /'1 • which is filed with the City Clerk. That map, along with all official amendments thereto, is made part of these regulations. 17.56.160 Use Restrictions Notwithstanding any other provisions of these regulations, no use may be made of land or water within any district established by this regulation in such a manner as to create electrical interference with navigational signals or radio communication between the airport and aircraft, make it difficult for pilots to distinguish between the airport lights and other lights, result in glare in the eyes of the pilots using the airport, im- pair visibility in the vicinity of the airport or otherwise in any way create a hazard or endanger the landing, takeoff, or maneuvering of air- craft intended to use the airport. /''''■ /r1 9 n n ro o 0 ro 9 (n x cr) i w a O C H F� , Oo 0 N 0 I rfi 0 F•-' G n o 0 r• ii, x rt iv O "--./ H P• 9 ru 9 n 0 0 Pe 1-' 0 a 0' rt 1-• 0 + rt n] n , r r HI ' • o m rt OA (D N CD P.

An area located in more than one of the following zones is limited by the more restrictive zone. No structure or tree shall be erected, altered, allowed to grow, or be maintained above the following imaginary surfaces: 1. Utility Runway Visual Approach Zone - slopes upward 20 feet horizontally for each foot vertically, beginning at the end of and at the same elevation and width as the primary surface and extending to a horizontal distance of 5,000 feet along the ex- tended runway centerline, with a lateral width of 1,250 feet. 2. Utility Runway Non - Precision Instrument Approach Zone - slopes upward twenty (20) feet horizontally for each foot vertically beginning at the end of and at the same elevation and width as the primary surface and extending to a horizontal distance of 5,000 feet along the extended runway centerline, with a lat- eral width of 2,000 feet. 3. Transitional Zone - slopes upward and outward seven feet hor- izontally for each foot vertically beginning at the sides of and at the same elevation and width as the primary surface and the approach zones, and extending to a height of 150 feet above the airport elevation. In addition to the foregoing, there are established height limits sloping upward and outward seven feet horizontally for each foot vertically beginning at the sides of and at the same elevation as the approach zones, and ex- tending to where they intersect with the conical surface. 4. Horizontal Zone - a horizontal plane 150 feet above the estab- lished airport elevation, the perimeter of which is construct- ed by swinging arcs of 5,000 feet from the center of each end of the primary surface of each runway or each airport and con- necting the adjacent arcs by lines tangent to those arcs. 5. Conical Zone - slopes upward and outward 20 feet horizontally for each foot vertically beginning at the periphery of the horizontal zone and extending to a height of 350 feet above the airport elevation. 17.056.190 Non Conforming Uses 1. Regulations Not Retroactive. These regulations shall not be construed to require the removal, lowering, or other changes or alterations of any structure or tree not conform- ing to the regulations as of the effective date hereof Nothing herein contained shall require any change in construction, alteration, or intended use of any structure, the construction or alteration of which was begun prior to the effective date of these regu- lations, and is diligently prosecuted to completion. 2. Hazard Marking and Lighting. Notwithstanding (1) above, the owner of any non - conforming structure nr tree is here- by required to permit the City of Laurel, at its own expense, to install, operate,and maintain thereon such markers and lights as the Airport Board may deem necessary to indicate n • • to airmen the presence of airport hazards; provided that the city does not by taking such action waive any right to exer- cise eminent domain or abate as a nuisance any such non- conforming structure. 17.056.200 Uses 1. Future uses. No person shall make any material change in the use of land and no person shall erect, alter, plant or otherwise establish any structure or tree in any zone hereby created unless approval has been applied for and granted. Applications for approvals shall be made to the City- County Planning Board. Each application for an approval shall in- dicate the purpose for which the approval is desired with sufficient data to allow the City- County Planning Board to determine whether the resulting use, structure, or tree would conform to these regulations. If such determination is in the affirmative, the approval shall be granted, unless overruled by the Airport Board within two weeks of the date of the decision of the Planning Board. 2. Existing Use. No approval shall be granted that would allow the establishment or creation of an airport hazard or allow a non - conforming use, structure,or tree to be made or become higher or a greater hazard to air navigation than it was on the effective date of these regulations or any amendment thereto or than it is when the application for an approval is made. 3. Non - conforming Uses Abondoned or Destroyed. Whenever the City - County Planning Board determines that a non - conforming structure or tree has been abandoned or more than 80 per cent torn down, destroyed, deteriorated, or decayed, no approval shall be granted that would allow such structure or tree to exceed the applicable height limit or otherwise deviate from these regu- lations. 4. Variances. Any person desiring to erect or increase the height of any structure, or permit the growth of any tree, or use his property not in accordance with these regulations may apply to the City- County Planning Board for a variance from such regulations. Such variance shall be allowed where a literal application or enforcement of these regulations would result in practical difficulty or unnecessary hardship and the relief granted would not be contrary to the public interest but do substantial•justice and be in accordance with the spirit of these regulations and of the enabling statute. 5. Hazard Marking and Lighting. In granting any approval or var- iance, the City- County Planning Board may, if such action is deemed advisable to effectuate the purposes of these regulations and be reasonable in the circum- stances, so condition such approval or variance as to require the owner of the structure to permit the City of Laurel, at its own expense, to install, operate, and maintain thereon such markers and lights as may from time to time be necessary to indi- cate to airmen the presence of an airport hazard.
