FOR AIRPORT VICINITY AND TO COMPLETE WITH COMPATIBLE ZONING
CONTROLSt Mr. Jerry Lundy said there is a concern about the height
of the buildings around the airport and in the landing approach
patterns, and because of this concern a resolution has been
prepared containing a recommendation to direct the Statesville and
Iredell County Planning staffs to begin work on a type of mini -
development plan for the land in and around the airport that would
allow height restrictions which would not encroach into the air
space and would create a standardized requirement for the vicinity
around the airport.
Commissioner Madison said the City of Statesville has zoning
jurisdiction for the airport property itself because of their
satellite annexation, and the county is responsible for everything
around it. He said he concurred this would be a step in the right
direction.
