RE: AIRPORT AFFECTED AREA ZONE
DATE: MARCH 3, 2006
Kalispell Airport Manager Fred Lestiko has been working with city and county staffs and
officials for over a year to bring this overlay ordinance to you. The airport overlay zone as
proposed for the Kalispell City Airport is required by the Federal Aviation Administration.
It has two primary purposes, to provide long term protection for the airspace around the
Kalispell airport and to provide a vehicle to notice new property owners at the time of
closing on the purchase of real estate within the airport area influence area that they indeed
are in an area influenced by the airport.
Fred will be in attendance at the March 14, Planning Board meeting to more fully describe
the proposed ordinance and to answer any questions you or the public may have. Attached
is a cover letter from Fred, the proposed ordinance, maps of the proposed area of impact
and a copy of the inter -local agreement between Kalispell and Flathead County authorizing
the City of Kalispell to take the lead in adopting this ordinance.

FM: Kalispell City Airport Affected Area Board
SUBJECT: Regulations for the Kalispell City Airport Affected Area
IKW-! 1►1);
During the last legislative session a new law was enacted to correct the ongoing problems
and frustrations of local governments trying to adopt local airport protection. The old
laws were contained within three sections of Montana Code that: were written in 1939,
1947 and 1977. One of the problems was that these three sections of law were not very
compatible and contained many out of.date references regarding aviation and current
problems facing airports such as the proliferation of cell towers, .developmental
encroachment upon airports and federal and state funding requirements. Those local
governments that control a NPIAS (National Program of Integrated Airport .Systems)
airport are required to comply with this new law. A NPIAS airport is basically an airport
that has been deemed by the FAA as being eligible and/or has received monies from the
FAA.
Title 67, Chapter 7, M.C.A., known as the "Airport Compatibility Act" requires all NPIAS
airports to develop a protective area around their airport within one year from the passage
of the act. This protective area, which is referred to as an "Airport Affected Area"
(AAA), must be 10,000' from the thresholds of each runway and 1 mile wide on each side.
Once an AAA is established, a person may not recover damages from the airport sponsor
caused by noise, fumes, vibrations, light or any other effects from normal and anticipated
airport operations. The law also allows joint owners of the airport, and for lands
surrounding an airport, to work together in a structured way to create the AAA. In the
case of joint ownership around the airport, the joint owners will form a joint board to
formulate the necessary regulations for the purpose of establishing regulations for the
administration of the AAA.
An Airport Affected Area Board was formed by the City of Kalispell and the Flathead
County Commissioners in May of 2005. The AAA Board had several meetings to discuss
adoption of rules to govern the Kalispell City Airport AAA. The proposed set of rules are
presented to the Kalispell City Planning Board for your action in accordance with the
Interlocal Agreement between the City of Kalispell and Flathead County dated January 30,
2006 and filed with the Secretary of State, the Flathead County Clerk and Recorders
office, and the City of Kalispell Clerk and Recorders office.
Following your public hearing, you will pass your recommendations on to the Kalispell
City Council alpng with the minutes of the public hearing. The Kalispell City Council shall
consider and determine the proposed ordinance for the Kalispell City Airport Affected
Area.
