City imposes Fairchild protections
The Spokane City Council voted unanimously late Monday to provide new land-use protections inside the city limits on the east side of Fairchild Air Force Base.
In adopting a new zoning code near the base, the council agreed to a series of amendments approved by the Spokane County commissioners last month.
Airway Heights and Medical Lake are considering similar plans.
The local governments are tightening land-use rules near the air base to protect the military mission from encroachment by civilian activity on the growing West Plains.
Under the new rules, land uses will be limited at the ends of the runways; soundproofing will be required in new buildings; and lighting and building heights will be controlled.
Owners of newly developed property would sign “avigation” easements acknowledging Fairchild’s use of the airspace in the area. The rules are intended to reduce noise complaints to the Air Force. The number of people living and working beneath the flight approaches would be limited under density rules.
