Title 17Division 6 — INDUSTRIAL ZONES

Chapter 17.63 — AEROSPACE INDUSTRIAL (AI)

Palmdale Zoning Code · 2026-06 edition · ingested 2026-07-06 · Palmdale

§ 17.63.010. Intent – Description.

This zone is intended to support the current and future operations of United States Air Force Plant 42 and the potential future Palmdale Regional Airport. It allows public and private airfields and support facilities, aerospace-related industries, transportation-related industries, and commercial facilities necessary to serve military/commercial air traffic. The AI zone allows many uses (such as intensive manufacturing, production, repair, and distribution) that are not suitable adjacent to other sensitive uses. The aerospace-oriented uses allowed in this designation comprise a unique and valuable source of employment for the City and therefore certain standards (such as Airport Protection Zones) apply to adjacent development to ensure that the viability of the aerospace industry is maintained. This zone implements the Aerospace Industrial General Plan land use designation.
