About this file
This is a Unified Land Development Code (ULDC) regulatory document from Palm Beach County that establishes Airport Zoning Overlay (AZO) provisions applicable to the North Palm Beach County General Aviation Airport and three other county-operated airports (PBIA, PBC Glades Airport, and PBC Park Airport). The document outlines comprehensive use regulations and development standards for both airport-related and non-airport related uses within airport property boundaries, as required by the Airport Master Plans. Airport-related uses include maintenance facilities, cargo terminals, car rentals, warehouses, hotels, and administrative offices, while non-airport related uses encompassing commercial, recreational, agricultural, utilities, and industrial operations are encouraged by the Federal Aviation Administration to generate revenue and offset airport operating costs. The regulations establish a permitting framework with uses classified as either permitted by right (P), permitted subject to Director of Regulatory Affairs approval (D), permitted only with Zoning Commission approval (B), or permitted only with Board of County Commissioners approval (A), depending on the use type and airport location.
Development requirements vary based on project scale, with uses exceeding maximum square footage thresholds (50,000 square feet for commercial, public, civic, recreation, and utilities uses; 100,000 square feet for industrial uses) subject to Planned Development District (PDD) or Traditional Development District (TDD) design standards. Property development regulations for non-airport related uses reference corresponding zoning districts (primarily CG and IG) for lot dimensions, density, floor area ratio, building coverage, and setbacks. All proposed uses must comply with applicable Federal Aviation Regulations, FAA Advisory Circulars, FAA Orders, Florida Statutes, and Florida Department of Transportation guidelines. Prohibited uses include adult entertainment and billboards, and the overlay provisions supersede conflicting regulations in other Code articles except where state or federal laws apply.

Section 2 AZO, Airport Zoning Overlay
A. Purpose and Intent The purpose and intent of the Airport zoning regulations is to promote the maximum safety of aircraft using publicly-owned airports, the safety of residents and property in areas surrounding the airports, and the full utility of the airports, including non-airport related uses. These regulations apply to properties around publicly owned airports in PBC; and uses located on the Airport Master Plans required by Plan Objective TE 1.7. [Ord. 2006-036]
B. Applicability
1. Off-Airport Uses
For those properties around publicly owned airports, the provisions of the Airport zoning regulations create zones, based on the approach and departure pattern of aircraft, and regulate the height of structures and the use of land within these zones. The Airport zoning regulations for properties around publicly owned airports are contained in Art. 16, Airport Regulations. [Ord. 2006-036]
2. Uses on Airport Properties The provisions of this Section shall apply to airport-related and non-airport related uses within the boundaries of the Airport Master Plans for those parcels with a U/T Land Use designation and in the PO district for the four County-operated airports identified as follows: PBIA, PBC Glades Airport, PBC Park Airport (aka Lantana Airport), and North Palm Beach County General Aviation Airport.
Development of these airports shall be in accordance with the Airport Master Plans as required by Plan Objective TE 1.7, Future Airport Expansion. [Ord. 2006-036]
a. Use Regulations
1) Airport-Related Uses Airport-related uses are directly related to general airport operations and maintenance including, but not limited to, maintenance facilities, cargo distribution terminals, car rental operations, warehouses, hotels, airport administrative offices, and communication facilities, as well as uses found within the terminals, including, but not limited to, restaurants, general retail sales and personal services. [Ord. 2006-036]
2) Non-Airport Related Uses Non-airport related uses are not related to the operation and maintenance of the airport, and can coexist in close physical proximity to airports and their related facilities. Non-airport related uses are additional uses that are encouraged by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to generate income to help offset the costs of operating the airport and are compatible with surrounding development. These uses may include, but are not limited to, commercial, public and civic, recreation, agricultural, utilities and excavation, and industrial uses, but more specifically including, but not limited to, professional, business, and medical offices, retail centers, restaurants and hotels. [Ord. 2006-036]
3) Prohibited Uses Prohibited uses include adult entertainment and billboards. [Ord. 2006-036] [Ord. 2009-040]
4) Specific Use Regulations The following uses are permitted in the AZO on airport properties: [Ord. 2006-036]

Section 3 COZ, Conditional Overlay Zone
A. Purpose and Intent A COZ district is to modify or restrict the use and site development regulations authorized in the underlying standard zoning district to prevent, minimize or mitigate adverse impacts upon the surrounding land uses. Conditions shall be included if the applicable regulations are inadequate to protect the surrounding land uses. Requirements of the COZ district are in addition to and supplement other applicable requirements of this Code. [Ord. 2008-037]
B. Boundaries The boundary of the COZ is applied to the property considered for rezoning. [Ord. 2008-037]
C. Applicability The provisions of the COZ shall apply to lands in unincorporated PBC pursuant to BCC approval.

The BCC shall find one or more of the following reasons for the COZ district:
[Ord. 2008-037]
1. potential impact to surrounding land uses requires mitigation;
2. compatibility will be furthered between the requested zoning district and adjacent zones if uses and property development regulations (PDRs) are modified; and/or
3. intensity limits reflect available capacity of public facilities.
D. District Regulations Restrictions which may be imposed in the COZ district include: limitations on uses, size, height, bulk, mass, scale and location of improvements, standards for landscaping, buffering, lighting, adequate ingress and egress, on-site or off-site improvements; hours of operation; and any other specific site development regulations required or authorized by this Code.
