While there are several zoning districts situated in the southern CZ, the
single family zoning districts (R‐60‐s and R‐75‐s) comprise of a little over
12.5 acres, which is not too large of a footprint. However, this zoning
district is considered incompatible in this area due to the risk associated
with the CZ. Likewise for the Institutional and Industry zoning districts,
these zoning districts permit structures that would pose a risk for the safety
of the general public and pilots if an aircraft mishap occurred.
Compatibility Assessment
The DOD AICUZ program identifies land uses that are compatible and
incompatible with active military airfields to encourage sustainable,
compatible land use planning around these unique operational facilities.
The AICUZ program uses historic data and scientific modeling based on
Table 5.21‐1.
various factors including geography, elevation of runways, aircraft type,
aircraft operations, wind, and others to develop the various modeling and
zones that are presented in the AICUZ reports, including the Maxwell AFB
AICUZ report. This information is designed for military and community
planners to make informed decisions about land uses and land use planning
around military airports. The Air Force recently updated its recommended
land use tables for the AICUZ program to better serve the military and
communities. According to the AFI 32‐7063 in December 2015, Table 5.21‐1
identifies the most current land use recommendations for the airfield safety
zones.
