 Appendix B. MUNICIPAL AIRPORT ZONING

  § 3. Zones.  

Latest version.

  • In order to carry out the provisions of this Ordinance, there are hereby created and established certain zones, which include all of the land lying beneath the Approach Surface, Transitional Surfaces, Horizontal Surface, and Conical Surface as they apply to the Russellville Municipal Airport. Such zones are shown on a zoning map consisting of sheets 1—3 inclusive, which is attached to this Ordinance as Attachment A and made a part hereof. An area located in more than one of the following zones is considered to be only in the zone with the more restrictive height limitations. The various zones are hereby established and defined as follows:

    (1)

    APPROACH ZONES.

    A.

    Runway 01 Approach zone is established beneath the approach surface at the end of Runway 01 on Russellville Municipal Airport for nonprecision instrument landings and takeoffs. The inner edge of the approach zone shall have a width of 500 feet which coincides with the width of the primary surface at the South end of the primary surface, widening thereafter uniformly to a width of 3,500 feet at horizontal distance of 10,000 feet beyond the end of the primary surface, its centerline being continuation of the centerline of the primary surface.

    B.

    Runway 19 Approach zone is established beneath the approach surface at the end of Runway 19 on Russellville Municipal Airport for nonprecision instrument landings and takeoffs. The inner edge of the approach zone shall have a width of 500 feet which coincides with the width of the primary surface at the North end of the primary surface, widening thereafter uniformly to a width of 3,500 feet at a horizontal distance of 10,000 feet beyond the end of the primary surface, its centerline being the continuation of the centerline of the primary surface.

    (2)

    TRANSITIONAL ZONES. Transitional zones are hereby established beneath the transitional surface adjacent to each runway and approach surface as indicated on the zoning map. Transitional surfaces, symmetrically located on either side of runways — have variable widths as shown on the zoning map. Transitional surfaces extend outward and upward at right angles to the runway centerline and the runway centerline extended at a slop of 7:1 from the sides of the primary surface and from the sides of approach surfaces.

    (3)

    HORIZONTAL ZONE. The area beneath a horizontal plane 150 feet above the established airport elevation, the perimeter of which is constructed by swinging arcs of 10,000 feet radii from the center of each end of the primary surface of runway(s) 01 and 19 and connecting the adjacent arcs by lines tangent to those arcs.

    (4)

    CONICAL ZONE. The area beneath the conical surface extending outward and upward from the periphery of the horizontal surface at a slope of 20:1 for a horizontal distance of 820 feet.
