<br /> With any of the three recommendations listed above the Planning 02
<br /> Board further recommends strongly that the applicant be required .,
<br /> to acquire t;iy purchase or by easement the triangular piece of the
<br /> clear 'zone which encroaches on the land of Mr. E.J. Crawford. A shift
<br /> in the axis of the runway might be possible to avoid this triangular
<br /> piece of land, but in that case a new drawing of the airport runway
<br /> should be submitted to the Planning Board to determine whether other
<br /> problems might be produced by such shift.
<br /> With respect to the other requests of the applicant for changes
<br /> in the stipulations and requirements of the special use permit, the
<br /> Planning Board recommends the following:
<br /> I _
<br /> II. The Planning Board recommends that the request for removal, of
<br /> the restrictions on the number of training flights be denied. As
<br /> I
<br /> stated above, the proposed Midway Airport will have a strong cross-
<br /> wind component during a large part of the year. This will add
<br /> to the danger of accidents which already is inherent in training
<br /> flight4Also, the training flights add greatly to the noise which
<br /> will haste a serious impact upon the citizens living near the airport.
<br /> III. The Planning Board recommends that the applicant's request
<br /> for de1.4tion of the requirement for the access road to Tear Road
<br /> be deni j d. It has been stated clearly and convincingly by the
<br /> Chief oil the Orange Grove Fire Company that the access road is
<br /> 'necessary for the fire company to be able to respond with
<br /> minimum delay to fires at the airport. Therefore, this access road
<br /> ,
<br /> . or an equivalent one0eadowcrest Road should be required.
<br /> lkl''
<br /> IV. The Planning Board recommends that the applicant's request
<br /> 4
<br /> • for permission to have accessory uses at the airport be limited
<br /> ,1
<br /> to the following uses which are clearly accessory to the
<br /> ,
<br /> primary function of an airport: radio sales (aircraft-type of
<br /> radio), radio service, aircraft sales, aircraft service, and a
<br /> coin-operated snack bar. We recommend that the following
<br /> servicesIbe specifically denied: branch banking, real estate
<br /> 1
<br /> office, sales of amusement and sporting tickets, an employee-
<br /> operated restaurant or snack bar, and unlimited office space.

<br /> In connection with the legal question of whether the Orange County
<br /> zoning ordinance can include an item or stipulation such as section
<br /> - 8.8.8.2.c which is more restrictive than State or Federal require-
<br /> .
<br /> merits, we have been advised by Mr.. Richard Ducker of the U.N.C. Institute
<br /> of Government that it is permissible for local zoning ordinances to
<br /> be more restrictive than corresponding State or Federal regulations
<br /> provided that it can be shown that the loCal, ordinance is not unreasonable.
<br /> If the Board ;sf County Commissioners believes that section 8.8.8.2.c
<br /> should not be applied in the case of Midway Airport, then a "cleaner"
<br /> way to proceed would be to ammend the ordinance to delete item
<br />
