STAFF FINDINGS: Due to the increased operation of helicopter sightseeing businesses in the County, and aircraft congestion generally, staff was asked by county commissioners to investigate the regulation of aircraft-related businesses and private airports. The Growth Management Department coordinated with the Airport Department for a study to be conducted by the Airport’s consultant RS&H. This study entitled “Siting Standards for Private Aviation Facilities in Unincorporated Okaloosa County” was completed by the consultant in April, 2013. Staff prepared draft zoning regulations based largely upon the consultant study. These regulations were presented to the Board at the first of two public hearings held July 2, 2013. That hearing was well attended by representatives of the private aviation community who expressed concerns about the “unintended consequences” of the proposed regulations. In particular, how the regulations might affect existing and future residential airparks. Staff also presented the Board with two possible options to the regulations presented in the staff report. At the Board’s direction staff met with concerned citizens on July 8, 2013 to discuss the two options in further detail. The July 8 meeting resulted in revised regulations which focused on scenic and sightseeing businesses, and included the revisions recommended by the group members at the hearing regarding residential airparks. While staff has been able to accommodate the group's concerns
