PROPOSAL
The applicant proposes rezoning of the request property from Agricultural (A) to Light Industrial
(I-1) with conditional use to permit airport uses. Other uses within the Light Industrial (I-1)
Zoning District would also be permitted. The Airport would have the ability to control what light
industrial uses would be allowed within the airport compound (fenced airport area) to ensure
such uses are compatible with airport operations.
The Applicant has indicated use of the property is planned to:
Enhance the safety and improvement of the airport noise abatement footprint by
increasing the amount of airport land buffer to the north; and
Enhance economic development through the increased income by basing additional
corporate and private aircraft at the airport, likely within the existing airplane hanger.
There is a possibility that a private road to provide emergency access for Fire Station 15,
located on Airfield Drive, would be constructed through the property. It is important to note
that prior to construction of any access, the location and design of the road would have to be
approved through plans review.
The property is located within an Emerging Growth Design District. The Zoning Ordinance
includes standards for development within this District that address setbacks, buffers,
screening, architectural treatment and landscaping.

anticipated traffic impact of the proposal has been evaluated and recommendations are
detailed in the chart below:
Potential Site Plan Recommendations
Right of Way Recordation
45 feet from centerline along Cogbill Road.
Vehicular Access Control
Access to Cogbill Road limited to 1 entrance/exit.

Road east of the property frontage, Cogbill Road may need
to be reconstructed to provide adequate sight distance.
“Off-site” right of way may need to be acquired to
provide this road improvement.
Road Improvements
Pavement along Cogbill Road to provide left and
right turn lanes at the approved access.
