This section is included in your selections.

This section identifies uses permitted and uses that may be conditionally permitted with appropriate findings within zones A-1, A-2 and A-3.

A. Use Groups. Section 17.30.090 defines the twenty-seven commercial “use groups” shown in subsection C of this section. Determination shall be made by the director of planning and the airport manager as to whether a proposed use is a permitted, conditionally permitted, or prohibited use and as to which use group is applicable. Use groups are broken into two major categories:

1. Aviation-related zone (zone A-1). Zone A-1 accommodates two types of aviation-related uses: (a) those uses requiring direct access to aircraft operating areas and apron sites, that is, sites immediately adjoining and accessible to aircraft operating areas; and (b) uses, which though not needing a site contiguous to the aircraft operating area, rely upon local air transportation or provide services and facilities required by other aviation-related uses.

2. Non-aviation uses (zones A-2 and A-3) are those uses which require neither access to aircraft operating areas, nor are required to provide services to facilities for aviation related uses, and therefore need not occupy sites with access or proximity to aircraft operating areas.

B. Lease Agreements for Apron Front Sites. If it can be demonstrated there are sufficient apron front sites to accommodate the projected five-year demand for such sites, lease of such sites in zone A-1 west of taxiway “A” as shown on the 1998 Airport Layout Plan for the Marina Municipal Airport for uses not requiring direct access to the aircraft operating areas shall be allowed and limited to five years unless extended by the city; and lease of such sites in zone A-1 north and east of taxiway “A” as shown on the 1998 Airport Layout Plan for the Marina Municipal Airport for uses not requiring direct access to the aircraft operating areas may be provided with FAA approval. In these instances, all costs associated with termination of the use or removal of related facilities shall be the sole responsibility of the lessee. One year prior to expiration of the lease the city shall seek leases from qualifying aviation-related uses. If the city is unable to lease the site to such uses within six months, it may elect to renew the lease of the current lessee for an additional five years with FAA approval.
