25-2
In order to carry out the provisions of this Ordinance, there are hereby created and established certain zones which include all of the land lying beneath the Approach Surfaces, Transitional Surfaces, Horizontal Surfaces, and Conical Surfaces as they apply to the Kanab Municipal Airport. Such zones are shown on the Kanab Airport Part '77' Airspace Drawing consisting of 1 sheet, (see Exhibit H) prepared by Creamer & Noble Engineers, and dated March, 2004 which is attached to this Ordinance and made a part hereof. An area located in more than one (1) of the following zones is considered to be only in the zone with the more restrictive height limitation. The various zones are hereby established and defined as follows:
1. Runway Precision Instrument Approach Zone - The inner edge of this approach zone coincides with the width of the primary surface and is 1,000 feet wide. The approach surface expands outward uniformly to a width of 16,000 feet at a horizontal distance of 50,000 feet from the primary surface. The centerline of the approach zone is the continuation of the centerline of the runway.
2. Runway Larger Than Utility With A Visibility Minimum Greater Than ¾ Mile Nonprecision Instrument Approach Zone - The inner edge of this approach zone coincides with the width of the primary surface and is 500 feet wide. The approach zone expands outward uniformly to a width of 3,500 feet at a horizontal distance of 10,000 feet from the primary surface. Its centerline is the continuation of the centerline of the runway.
3. Runway Larger Than Utility With A Visibility Minimum as Low as ¾ Mile Non-precision Instrument Approach Zone - The inner edge of this approach zone coincides with the width of the primary surface and is 1,000 feet wide. The approach zone expands outward uniformly to a width of 4,000 feet at a horizontal distance 10,000 feet from the primary surface. Its centerline is the continuation of the centerline of the runway.
4. Visual Runway Approach Zone - The inner edge of this approach zone coincides with the width of the primary surface and is 500 feet wide. The approach surface expands uniformly to a width of 1,500 feet at a horizontal distance of 5,000 feet from the primary surface. The centerline of the approach zone is a continuation of the centerline of the runway. This is the existing condition as of the date of this ordinance.
5. Transitional Zones - The transitional zones are the areas beneath the transitional surfaces.
6. Horizontal Zones - The horizontal zone is established by swinging arcs of 10,000 feet radii from the center of each end of the primary surface of the primary runway and connecting the adjacent arcs by drawing lines tangent to those arcs. The horizontal zone does not include the approach and transitional zones.
7. Conical Zone - The conical zone is established as the area that commences at the periphery of the horizontal zone and extend outward there from a horizontal distance of 4,000 feet.
