Airport Vicinity Zoning Plan Discussed By City Officials
City officials and Civil Aeronautics Authority representatives considered forming a joint commission to study neighborhoods around the Municipal Airport and propose a two to two and a half mile zoning area. The plan would limit building heights in flight paths and farming districts and create a city county zoning board of adjustment. The 50th Legislature enabled county involvement in airport zoning, and federal aid for airport improvements depends on adopting the plan. A $100,000 project to expand the loading apron and taxiways awaits matching federal funds, with county talks planned before action.
