Tallanassee Florida 32301-8064. Telephone (904) 488-8541 <br />PAUL N. PAPPAS <br />SECRETARY <br />July 29,'1982 <br />6 <br />22 <br />J <br />Ms. Janis Johnson <br />Staff Planner <br />Indian River Planning Department <br />1840 25th Street <br />Vero Beach, Florida 32960 �:, _ry _ ,���`' t <br />Dear Ms. Johnson: <br />As a result of our telephone conversation on July 28, 1982 <br />I am enclosing a copy of the proposed zoning ordinance for Indian <br />River County. In 1975, Chapter 76-16, Laws of Florida, was en- <br />acted which amended Chapter 333, Florida Statutes, and is.enclosed <br />for your information. Section 333.03(1) requires every political <br />subdivision having an..airport hazard area within its territorial <br />limits to adopt an airport zoning ordinance prior to October 1,.. <br />1977. Airport zoning ordinances, such as I have -'-enclosed, have - <br />been adopted throughtout the State of Florida and have been tested <br />and upheldinDistrict and Appellate Courts. <br />It has come to my attention that a mobile home park is pro- <br />posed in proximity to the runway end at New Hibiscus Airport. The <br />Accident Potential Hazard Area addressed -in the proposed ordinance <br />is an area 2,500 feet either side of the extended centerline of the <br />runway and 5,000 feet from the end of that runway. As shown on <br />Page 8, Section IV D of the Ordinance, high-density, residential <br />use would be prohibited within the Accident Potential Hazard Area. <br />The concept of allowing mobile home parks in the take -off or land- <br />ing patterns of an airport is also against the Department of Housing <br />and Urban Development (HUD) guidelines as set forth in 24 CFR 51 and <br />other policies. <br />Based on the information available to me, it is my opinion <br />that allowing a mobile home park to be located in the approach or <br />departure patterns of an airport, would not only create a potential <br />noise problem for the residents but would also create a safety <br />hazard. <br />If I can be of any additional assistance in this matter, <br />please do not hesitate to contact me. <br />Sincerely, <br />Herbert L.
