§ 1011. Permits as to structures
Airport zoning regulations adopted under this chapter may require that a permit be
obtained before any new structure or use may be constructed or established and before
any existing use or structure may be substantially changed, altered, or repaired.
The permit shall be issued if the structure, as erected or altered, conforms with
the regulations, or will not constitute a greater hazard than the structure that is
replaced or altered. In any event, however, all regulations shall provide that before
any nonconforming airport hazard may be replaced, substantially altered, repaired,
rebuilt, allowed to grow higher, or replanted, a permit must be secured from the administrative
agency authorized to administer and enforce the regulations, authorizing the replacement,
change, or repair. A permit shall not be granted that would allow the establishment
or creation of an airport hazard or permit a nonconforming airport hazard or use to
be made or become higher or become a greater hazard to air navigation than it was
when the applicable regulation was adopted or than it is when the application for
a permit is made. Except as provided in this chapter, all applications for permits
shall be granted. (Added 1985, No. 222 (Adj. Sess.), § 2.)
