1. The area under consideration for a Special Use Permit was shown on 'the plans and described in the deeds submitted by the applicant. Z. The iplans show the existing and proposed road rights-of-way and there are 'no existing or proposed utility or drainage easements. Any necessary easements or rights-of-way for approach zones or clear zones can be handled as an imposed condition. 3. The lapplicant can meet all applicable FAA and state requirements; it maybe necessary to slightly modify the site plan to do so. This can be an imposed condition. i 4. The (Iopinion of Wallace Kaufman about property values had valid points; howe',ver, there were not sepcific numbers given to support the idea of decreased values. In spite of the existence of Horace Williams Airpor land! development has continued around that facility. S. The applicant can provide land sufficient for a clear zone and thereby assuze aircraft operator safety. There is no evidence that the applic t can ''own or control the land uses or height of- Objects in the approach zones and thereby protect residents from adverse impacts associated wi h the lairport or protect the aiz-port operations from adverse impacts fro adjacent uses. 6. The Orange Grove Rural Eire Department provided a letter that stated eir ability to provide adequate fire protection if certain requirements we e met.' They also made suggestions for improved services which would enhance their ability to provide protection. 7. There are several residences located in the approach zones for the ai ort. This'number is relatively small and further residential development s uld be discouraged. other compatible land uses generally would not be all wed in the approach zones because they are not allowed under the present zonings therefore, agricultural use of the land may continue. 8. Conditions imposed on the applicant can prevent or alleviate many of the concerns for public health, safety and general welfare. 9.. The Land Use Plan does not specifically address the appropriate location for an airport. The Zoning Ordinance allows general aviation airports in the Agricultural-Ftsidential district, with a Special Use Permit. The General Aviation Airport Need and Sites study indicated that this location was on an above average site within the County. The Planning Departme t acknowledges that there are other better sites for such a facility if the County were to construct an airport. i MV ACT: Approval of this request would allow the construction of an airport. COMMMATION: The Planning Board recommends denial of the request_. tie Planning Departmeant recommends approval with imposed conditions. I i
