17.112.020 - Airport zoning commission.¶
The planning commission is appointed as the airport zoning commission of the city with all of the powers and duties specified by the Airport Approaches Zoning Law of the state (Chapter 1741, Statutes of 1953), now included in Sections 50481 to 50485.14, inclusive, of the Government Code, or any amendment thereto.

17.112.030 - Procedure.¶
A. No building or structures, including all superstructures and appurtenances, shall be erected, moved, altered or reconstructed, nor shall any plant or tree be allowed to grow in such a manner so that the height thereof will constitute a hazard to the safe landing or take-off of aircraft using the airport in the district subject to these regulations. The height limit thus imposed shall be determined in each case by the planning commission and shall be governed by and not more restrictive than those imposed by Civil Aeronautics Administration Technical Standard Order N18, "Criteria for Determining Obstructions to Air Navigation," dated April 26, 1950, as amended. A copy of said Technical Standard Order N18, with amendments shall be on file in the office of the planning commission. In no event shall the provisions of this section prevent the erection or maintenance of a building, structure or tree, no part of which exceeds thirty-five feet in height. Permits issued for buildings and structures in areas subject to airport approach zones shall specify the height limitations of such buildings or structures as set forth in this section.
B. The procedure for classifying any land in the H airport approach height zone shall comply with the provisions of the Airport Approaches Zoning Law.
