2021 Florida Statutes|Title XXV - Aviation|Chapter 332 - Airports and Other Air Navigation Facilities|332.115 - Joint Project Agreement With Port District for Transportation Corridor Between Airport and Port Facility.

332.115 Joint project agreement with port district for transportation corridor between airport and port facility.—(1) An eligible agency may acquire, construct, and operate all equipment, appurtenances, and land necessary to establish, maintain, and operate, or to license others to establish, maintain, operate, or use, a transportation corridor connecting an airport operated by such eligible agency with a port facility, which corridor must be acquired, constructed, and used for the transportation of persons between the airport and the port facility, for the transportation of cargo, and for the location and operation of lines for the transmission of water, electricity, communications, information, petroleum products, products of a public utility (including new technologies of a public utility nature), and materials. However, any such corridor may be established and operated only pursuant to a joint project agreement between an eligible agency as defined in s. 332.004 and a port district as defined in s. 315.02, and such agreement must be approved by the Department of Transportation and the Department of Economic Opportunity. Before the Department of Transportation approves the joint project agreement, that department must review the public purpose and necessity for the corridor pursuant to s. 337.273(5) and must also determine that the proposed corridor is consistent with the Florida Transportation Plan. Before the Department of Economic Opportunity approves the joint project agreement, that department must determine that the proposed corridor is consistent with the applicable local government comprehensive plans. An affected local government may provide its comments regarding the consistency of the proposed corridor with its comprehensive plan to the Department of Economic Opportunity.(2) Prior to developing a new corridor, the eligible agency, in determining the most feasible corridor, shall give first consideration to existing and available corridors in the public domain.(3) A transportation corridor established pursuant to this section shall not be considered an aviation project for purposes of state funding, but shall be considered an aviation project for all other purposes.History.—s. 121, ch. 90-136; s. 29, ch. 90-227; s. 5, ch. 91-142; s. 10, ch. 2000-325; s. 237, ch. 2011-142.

If moneys are not expended for such purposes by December 31, 2006, the airport authority shall not thereafter amend its development-of-regional-impact development order or commence development of airport infrastructure improvements authorized by such development order until such funds are fully expended for such purposes.History.—s. 2, ch. 2001-349.
FL Stat § 333.02 (2021)
2021 Florida Statutes|Title XXV - Aviation|Chapter 333 - Airport Zoning|333.02 - Airport Hazards and Uses of Land in Airport Vicinities Contrary to Public Interest.

333.02 Airport hazards and uses of land in airport vicinities contrary to public interest.—(1) It is hereby found that an airport hazard endangers the lives and property of users of the airport and of occupants of land in its vicinity and also, if of the obstruction type, in effect reduces the size of the area available for the taking off, maneuvering, or landing of aircraft, thus tending to destroy or impair the utility of the airport and the public investment therein. It is further found that certain activities and uses of land in the immediate vicinity of airports as enumerated in s. 333.03(2) are not compatible with normal airport operations, and may, if not regulated, also endanger the lives of the participants, adversely affect their health, or otherwise limit the accomplishment of normal activities. Accordingly, it is hereby declared:(a) That the creation or establishment of an airport hazard and the incompatible use of land in airport vicinities are public nuisances and injure the community served by the airport in question;(b) That it is therefore necessary in the interest of the public health, public safety, and general welfare that the creation or establishment of airport hazards and incompatible land uses be prevented; and(c) That this should be accomplished, to the extent legally possible, by the exercise of the police power, without compensation.(2) It is further declared that the limitation of land uses incompatible with normal airport operations, the prevention of the creation or establishment of airport hazards, and the elimination, removal, alteration, mitigation, or marking and lighting of existing airport hazards are public purposes for which political subdivisions may raise and expend public funds and acquire land or property interests therein, or air rights thereover.History.—s. 2, ch. 23079, 1945; s. 2, ch. 88-356; s. 71, ch. 90-136.

FL Stat § 333.05 (2021)
2021 Florida Statutes|Title XXV - Aviation|Chapter 333 - Airport Zoning|333.05 - Procedure for Adoption of Airport Zoning Regulations.

333.05 Procedure for adoption of airport zoning regulations.—(1) NOTICE AND HEARING.—Airport zoning regulations may not be adopted, amended, or repealed under this chapter except by action of the legislative body of the political subdivision or affected subdivisions, or the joint board provided in s. 333.03(1)(b)2. by the political subdivisions therein provided and set forth, after a public hearing in relation thereto, at which parties in interest and citizens shall have an opportunity to be heard. Notice of the hearing shall be published at least once a week for 2 consecutive weeks in a newspaper of general circulation in the political subdivision or subdivisions where the airport zoning regulations are to be adopted, amended, or repealed.(2) AIRPORT ZONING COMMISSION.—Before the initial zoning of any airport area under this chapter, the political subdivision or joint airport zoning board that is to adopt, administer, and enforce the regulations must 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. Such commission shall make a preliminary report and hold public hearings thereon before submitting its final report, and the legislative body of the political subdivision or the joint airport zoning board may not hold its public hearings or take any action until it has received the final report of such commission, and at least 15 days shall elapse between the receipt of the final report of the commission and the hearing to be held by the latter board. If a planning commission, an airport commission, or a comprehensive zoning commission already exists, it may be appointed as the airport zoning commission.History.—s. 5, ch. 23079, 1945; s. 74, ch. 90-136; s. 23, ch. 90-279; s. 39, ch. 95-143; s. 5, ch. 2016-209; s. 25, ch. 2016-239.
FL Stat § 333.06 (2021)
2021 Florida Statutes|Title XXV - Aviation|Chapter 333 - Airport Zoning|333.06 - Airport Zoning Regulation Requirements.

333.06 Airport zoning regulation requirements.—(1) REASONABLENESS.—All airport zoning regulations adopted under this chapter shall be reasonable and may not impose any requirement or restriction which is not reasonably necessary to effectuate the purposes of this chapter. In determining what regulations it may adopt, each political subdivision and joint airport zoning board shall consider, among other things, the character of the flying operations expected to be conducted at the airport, the nature of the terrain within the airport hazard area and runway protection zones, the character of the neighborhood, the uses to which the property to be zoned is put and adaptable, and the impact of any new use, activity, or construction on the airport’s operating capability and capacity.(2) INDEPENDENT JUSTIFICATION.—The purpose of all airport zoning regulations adopted under this chapter is to provide both airspace protection and land uses compatible with airport operations. Each aspect of this purpose requires independent justification in order to promote the public interest in safety, health, and general welfare. Specifically, construction in a runway protection zone which does not exceed airspace height restrictions is not conclusive that such use, activity, or construction is compatible with airport operations.(3) NONCONFORMING USES.—An airport protection zoning regulation adopted under this chapter may not require the removal, lowering, or other change or alteration of any obstruction not conforming to the regulation when adopted or amended, or otherwise interfere with the continuance of any nonconforming use, except as provided in s. 333.07(1) and (3).(4) ADOPTION OF AIRPORT MASTER PLAN AND NOTICE TO AFFECTED LOCAL GOVERNMENTS.—An airport master plan shall be prepared by each public-use airport licensed by the department under chapter 330. The authorized entity having responsibility for governing the operation of the airport, when either requesting from or submitting to a state or federal governmental agency with funding or approval jurisdiction a “finding of no significant impact,” an environmental assessment, a site-selection study, an airport master plan, or any amendment to an airport master plan, shall submit simultaneously a copy of said request, submittal, assessment, study, plan, or amendments by certified mail to all affected local governments. As used in this subsection, the term “affected local government” is defined as any municipality or county having jurisdiction over the airport and any municipality or county located within 2 miles of the boundaries of the land subject to the airport master plan.History.—s. 6, ch. 23079, 1945; s. 75, ch. 90-136; s. 76, ch. 2002-20; s. 6, ch. 2016-209; s. 26, ch. 2016-239.
FL Stat § 333.09 (2021)
2021 Florida Statutes|Title XXV - Aviation|Chapter 333 - Airport Zoning|333.09 - Administration of Airport Protection Zoning Regulations.

333.09 Administration of airport protection zoning regulations.—(1) ADMINISTRATION.—All airport protection zoning regulations adopted under this chapter shall provide for the administration and enforcement of such regulations by the political subdivision or its administrative agency. The duties of any administrative agency designated pursuant to this chapter must include that of hearing and deciding all permits under s. 333.07, as they pertain to such agency, and all other matters under this chapter applying to said agency.(2) LOCAL GOVERNMENT PROCESS.—(a) A political subdivision required to adopt airport zoning regulations under this chapter shall provide a process to:1. Issue or deny permits consistent with s. 333.07.2. Provide the department with a copy of a complete application consistent with s. 333.025(4).3. Enforce the issuance or denial of a permit or other determination made by the administrative agency with respect to airport zoning regulations.(b) If a zoning board or permitting body already exists within a political subdivision, the zoning board or permitting body may implement the airport zoning regulation permitting and appeals processes.(3) APPEALS.—(a) A person, a political subdivision or its administrative agency, or a joint airport zoning board that contends a decision made by a political subdivision or its administrative agency is an improper application of airport zoning regulations may use the process established for an appeal.(b) All appeals taken under this section must be taken within a reasonable time, as provided by the political subdivision or its administrative agency, by filing with the entity from which the appeal is taken a notice of appeal specifying the grounds for appeal.(c) An appeal shall stay all proceedings in the underlying action appealed from, unless the entity from which the appeal is taken certifies pursuant to the rules for appeal that by reason of the facts stated in the certificate a stay would, in its opinion, cause imminent peril to life or property. In such cases, proceedings may not be stayed except by order of the political subdivision or its administrative agency on notice to the entity from which the appeal is taken and for good cause shown.(d) The political subdivision or its administrative agency shall set a reasonable time for the hearing of appeals, give public notice and due notice to the parties in interest, and decide the same within a reasonable time. Upon the hearing, any party may appear in person, by agent, or by attorney.(e) The political subdivision or its administrative agency may, in conformity with this chapter, affirm, reverse, or modify the decision on the permit or other determination from which the appeal is taken.History.—s. 9, ch. 23079, 1945; s. 8, ch. 2016-209; s. 30, ch. 2016-239.

333.11 Judicial review.—(1) Any person, political subdivision, or joint airport zoning board affected by a decision of a political subdivision or its administrative agency may apply for judicial relief to the circuit court in the judicial circuit where the political subdivision is located within 30 days after rendition of the decision. Review shall be by petition for writ of certiorari, which shall be governed by the Florida Rules of Appellate Procedure.(2) The court has exclusive jurisdiction to affirm, reverse, or modify the decision on the permit or other determination from which the appeal is taken and, if appropriate, to order further proceedings by the political subdivision or its administrative agency. The findings of fact by the political subdivision or its administrative agency, if supported by substantial evidence, shall be accepted by the court as conclusive, and an objection to a decision of the political subdivision or its administrative agency may not be considered by the court unless such objection was raised in the underlying proceeding.(3) If airport zoning regulations adopted under this chapter are held by a court to interfere with the use and enjoyment of a particular structure or parcel of land to such an extent, or to be so onerous in their application to such a structure or parcel of land, as to constitute a taking or deprivation of that property in violation of the State Constitution or the Constitution of the United States, such holding shall not affect the application of such regulations to other structures and parcels of land, or such regulations as are not involved in the particular decision.(4) A judicial appeal to any court may not be permitted under this section until the appellant has exhausted all of its remedies through application for local government permits, exceptions, and appeals.History.—s. 11, ch. 23079, 1945; s. 43, ch. 63-512; s. 7, ch. 88-356; s. 485, ch. 95-148; s. 9, ch. 2016-209; s. 32, ch. 2016-239.

2021 Florida Statutes|Title XXV - Aviation|Chapter 333 - Airport Zoning|333.12 - Acquisition of Air Rights.

333.12 Acquisition of air rights.—If a nonconforming obstruction is determined to be an airport hazard and the owner will not remove, lower, or otherwise eliminate it; the approach protection necessary cannot, because of constitutional limitations, be provided by airport zoning regulations under this chapter; or it appears advisable that the necessary approach protection be provided by acquisition of property rights rather than by airport zoning regulations, the political subdivision within which the property or nonconforming obstruction is located, or the political subdivision owning or operating the airport or being served by it, may acquire, by purchase, grant, or condemnation in the manner provided by chapter 73, such property, air right, avigation easement, or other estate, portion, or interest in the property or nonconforming obstruction or such interest in the air above such property, in question, as may be necessary to effectuate the purposes of this chapter, and in so doing, if by condemnation, to have the right to take immediate possession of the property, interest in property, air right, or other right sought to be condemned, at the time, and in the manner and form, and as authorized by chapter 74. In the case of the purchase of any property, easement, or estate or interest therein or the acquisition of the same by the power of eminent domain, the political subdivision making such purchase or exercising such power shall, in addition to the damages for the taking, injury, or destruction of property, also pay the cost of the removal and relocation of any structure or any public utility that is required to be moved to a new location.History.—s. 12, ch. 23079, 1945; s. 10, ch. 2016-209; s. 33, ch. 2016-239.
