30.2 AIRPORT IMPACT AREA OVERLAY DISTRICT - AIA
30.2.1 INTENT
The airport impact area ("AIA") overlay district is created in recognition of: airport related
hazards which may endanger lives and property; obstructions which effectively reduce air space
required for take -off/ landing and maneuvering of aircraft, thereby reducing the utility of the
Charlottesville -Albemarle Airport and the public investment therein; and noise from aircraft
operations which may adversely affect the health of persons and the peaceful use and enjoyment
of property. It is the intent of this overlay district to minimize the creation of physical, visual and
other obstructions to the safe operations of the airport facility and to minimize adverse air portrelated
impact on persons and properties in the vicinity. The AIA overlay district shall consist of
the airport protection area, runway protection zone ("RPZ") and the AIA noise impact area.
(12-10-80; Ord. 05-18(6), 6-8-05)
30.2.2 APPLICATION
The AIA overlay district is hereby created and designated generally on the zoning map and
specifically on the Airport Airspace Drawing -Part 77, as amended, and on the Existing Noise
Contours Map (2003), of the Charlottesville/Albemarle Airport Master Plan, as amended ("Airport
Airspace Drawing -Part 77" and "Existing Noise Contours Map (2003)", respectively). Copies of
these documents shall be available in the office of the zoning administrator.
(12-10-80; Ord. 05-18(6), 6-8-05)
30.2.3 DEFINITIONS
The following definitions shall apply in the interpretation and implementation of this section 30.2:
(1) AIA noise impact area. The term "AIA noise impact area" means all land within the 65 DNL
contour as delineated on the Existing Noise Contours Map (2003). (Amended 6-8-05)
(2) Airport protection area. The term "airport protection area" means the imaginary conical,
horizontal, transitional and approach surfaces as delineated and/or described on the Airport
Airspace Drawing -Part 77. (Amended 6-8-05)
(3) Primary surface. The term "primary surface" means a surface longitudinally centered on a
runway. The primary surface for Runway 3-21 extends two hundred (200) feet beyond each end
and is one thousand (1,000) feet wide. The elevation of the primary surface is the same as the
elevation of the nearest point on the runway centerline. (Amended 6-8-05)
(4) Runway protection zone. The term "runway protection zone" means an area at ground level
underlying a portion of the FAR Part 77 imaginary runway approach surface and extending to a
point on the ground where the elevation of the approach surface reaches fifty (50) feet above the
runway end elevation. The runway protection zone is trapezoidal in shape and centered about the
extended runway centerline, with dimensions for a particular runway end defined by the type of
aircraft and approach visibility minimum associated with that runway end. The runway protection
zone typically begins two hundred (200) feet beyond the end of the runway area usable for takeoff
and landing, and extends from the ends of the primary surface. At the Charlottesville -Albemarle
Airport, the dimensions of the runway protection zone for Runway 3 are one thousand (1,000) feet
(inner width), one thousand seven hundred fifty (1,750) feet (outer width) and two thousand five
hundred (2,500) feet (length); the dimensions of the runway protection zone for Runway 21 are
one thousand (1,000) feet (inner width), one thousand five hundred ten (1,510) feet (outer width)
and one thousand seven hundred (1,700) feet (length). (Added 6-8-05)
(5) Safety area. The term "safety area" means the airport primary surface and the runway
protection zone at each end of the runway as shown on the Airport Lay -Out Plan. (Amended 6-8-
05)
(12-10-80; Ord. 05-18(6), 6-8-05)
30.2.4 PERMITTED USES
Within the AIA overlay district, uses shall be permitted in accordance with the regulations and
requirements of the underlying district except as hereafter expressly provided.
30.2.4.1 PENETRATION PROHIBITED
No building, structure, object of natural growth, or use shall be permitted which shall penetrate the
airport protection area. Penetration shall include but shall not be limited to any use or activity
which would cause the intrusion into any of the imaginary zones of light, glare, smoke, particles,
projectiles, radiation or electrical interference. In determination of potential penetration, the
zoning administrator shall consult with the Federal Aviation Administration, the Virginia
Department of Aviation and the Charlottesville -Albemarle Airport Board.
