Title 3. Aircraft and Airports.
§3-105. Procedure for adoption of zoning regulations.
(1) Notice and Hearing. No airport zoning regulations shall be adopted, amended, or changed under this act except by action of the governing body of the political subdivision in question, or the Joint Board provided for in subsection (2) of Section 103 of this title, after a public hearing in relation thereto, at which parties in interest and citizens shall have an opportunity to be heard. At least fifteen (15) days' notice of the hearing shall be published in an official paper, or a paper of general circulation, in the political subdivision or subdivisions in which is located the airport hazard area to be zoned.
(2) Airport Zoning Commission. Prior to the initial zoning of any airport hazard area under this act, the political subdivision or Joint Airport Zoning Board which is to adopt the regulations shall appoint a Commission, to be known as the Airport Zoning Commission, to recommend the boundaries of the various zones to be established and the regulations to be adopted therefor. The Commission shall make a preliminary report and hold public hearings thereon before submitting its final report, and the governing body of the political subdivision or the Joint Airport Zoning Board shall not hold its public hearings or take other action until it has received the final report of the Commission. Where a city planning commission or comprehensive zoning commission already exists, it may be appointed as the Airport Zoning Commission.
