BACKGROUND: Staff has received a request for consideration of"Plastic Injection Molding" as a permitted use in business zones. Using current technology, the process involves heating plastic pellets within a mold. No solvents or Volatile Organic compounds are used in the molding process. Machinery is hydraulic, generating less noise than a small forklift. The process is less intensive than a print shop which is a permitted use in both B-2 and B-3 business zoning districts. Currently the use is permitted only in 1-2 Light Industrial and 1-3 Heavy Industrial zoning districts. The proposed amendment was sent to CTED on December 8, 2005, and a Determination of Non-Significance (DNS) was made on the same day, with comments due on December 30, 2005. OPTIONS: Approve, provide staff with direction or disapprove. RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Not applicable BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: None.

An airport hazards endangers the lives and property of users of landing fields and property or occupant: and persons in the vicinity of landing fields within Spokane CountyFelts Field-: and 2. Airspace obstructions and incompatible land uses An airport hazard of the obstructive nature in effect reduces the size of the area available for the landing, takeoff, and Spokane Valley Airport Hazard Zone maneuvering of aircraft, thus tending to destroy or impair the utility of an airport and diminish the value of the public investment therein: and, detrimental to the region served by the airport affected. 4.

Provisions of this chapter shall apply to all lands, buildings, structures, natural features and uses located within the Airport Hazard Overlay (AO) Zone district as depicted on the maps. except that the provisions of this chapter shall not apply to any use that is defined as an aviation use. All uses and activities are at all times subject to the underlying zoning district. Where the requirements and restrictions imposed by the Airport Hazard Overlay Zone conflict with the requirements of the underlying zone district, the more restrictive requirement shall be applied. 14.702.040 Airs,.ace and Accident Potential Areas In order to carry out the purposo and intent of the Airport Overlay Zone as set forth --- and land use safety or as are established. 2. Approach Area (AA) : The approach arca is all that land which lies directly under an imaginary approach surface longitudinally centered on the extended centerline at _ash end of a runway.

Precision Instrument Runway Approach Zone - Slopes fifty (50) feet outward for each foot upward beainninq at the end of and at the same elevation as the primary surface and extending to a horizontal distance of 10,000 feet along the extended runway centerline: thence slopes upward forty (40) feet horizontally for each foot vertically to an additional horizontal distance of 40.000 feet along the extended runway centerline. 3. Transitional Zones - Slope seven (7) feet outward for each foot upward beginning at the sides of and at the same elevation as the primary surface and the approach surface, and extending to a height of 150 feet above the airport elevation which is 1.952 feet above mean sea level. In addition to the foregoing. there are established height limits sloping seven (7) feet outward for each foot upward beginning at the sides of and at the same elevation as the .approach surface, and extending to where they' intersect the conical surface. Where the precision instrument runway approach zone projects beyond the conical zone, there are established height limits sloping seven (7) feet outward for each foot upward beginning at the sides of and at the same elevation as the approach surface, and extending a horizontal distance of 5.000 feet measured at 90 degree angles to the extended runway centerline. 4.
