Regulations Respecting Zoning at Thompson Airport

P.C. 1991-348 1991-02-28

Whereas, pursuant to section 5.5Footnote * of the Aeronautics Act, a copy of the proposed Zoning Regulations respecting Thompson Airport, substantially in the form set out in the schedule hereto, was published in two successive issues of the Canada Gazette Part I, on August 26th and September 2nd 1989, and in two successive issues of The Thompson Citizen on October 4th and 6th, 1989, and a reasonable opportunity was thereby afforded to interested persons to make representations to the Minister of Transport with respect thereto;

Therefore, His Excellency the Governor General in Council, on the recommendation of the Minister of Transport, pursuant to section 5.4Footnote * of the Aeronautics Act, is pleased hereby to make the annexed Regulations respecting zoning at Thompson Airport.

    airport reference point means the point described in Part I of the schedule; (point de repère de l’aéroport)

    strip means the rectangular portion of the landing area of the airport, including the runway, prepared for the take-off and landing of aircraft in a particular direction, which strip is more particularly described in Part IV of the schedule; (bande)

Application

 These Regulations apply to all the lands, including public road allowances, adjacent to or in the vicinity of the airport, which lands are more particularly described as follows:

  • (a) the lands within the outer limits of lands described in Part VI of the schedule; and

  • (b) the lands directly under that portion of the approach surfaces that extends beyond the said outer limits.

General

 No person shall erect or construct on any land to which these Regulations apply, any building, structure or object or any addition to any existing building, structure or object, the highest point of which will exceed in elevation at the location of that point

  • (a) the approach surfaces;

  • (b) the outer surface; or

  • (c) the transitional surfaces.

Natural Growth

 Where an object of natural growth on any land to which these Regulations apply exceeds in elevation any of the surfaces referred to in paragraphs 4(a) to (c), the Minister may require that the owner or occupier of the land on which that object is growing remove the excessive growth.

Disposal of Waste

 No owner or occupier of any land to which these Regulations apply shall permit such land or any part of it to be used for the disposal of any waste that is edible by or attractive to birds.

SCHEDULE(Sections 2 and 3)

PART IDescription of Airport Reference Point

The airport reference point, shown on Thompson Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2647 dated June 7, 1988, is a point lying perpendicularly distant 91.45 m northwesterly from a point on the centre line of runway 05-23 distant southwesterly 655.52 m from the threshold of runway 23.

PART IIDescription of the Approach Surfaces

The approach surfaces, shown on Thompson Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2647, dated June 7, 1988, are surfaces abutting each end of the strips associated with the runways designated 05-23 and 14-32, and are described as follows:

  • (a) a surface abutting the end of the strip associated with runway approach 05 consisting of an inclined plane having a ratio of 1 m measured vertically to 50 m measured horizontally rising to an imaginary horizontal line drawn at right angles to the projected centre line of the strip and distant 15 000 m measured horizontally from the end of the strip; the outer ends of the imaginary horizontal line being 2 400 m from the projected centre line; said imaginary horizontal line being 300 m measured vertically above the elevation at the end of the strip;

  • (b) a surface abutting the end of the strip associated with runway approach 23 consisting of an inclined plane having a ratio of 1 m measured vertically to 50 m measured horizontally rising to an imaginary horizontal line drawn at right angles to the projected centre line of the strip and distant 15 000 m measured horizontally from the end of the strip; the outer ends of the imaginary horizontal line being 2 400 m from the projected centre line; said imaginary horizontal line being 300 m measured vertically above the elevation at the end of the strip;

  • (c) a surface abutting the end of the strip associated with runway approach 14 consisting of an inclined plane having a ratio of 1 m measured vertically to 20 m measured horizontally rising to an imaginary horizontal line drawn at right angles to the projected centre line of the strip and distant 2 500 m measured horizontally from the end of the strip; the outer ends of the imaginary horizontal line being 280 m from the projected centre line; said imaginary horizontal line being 125 m measured vertically above the elevation at the end of the strip; and

  • (d) a surface abutting the end of the strip associated with runway approach 32 consisting of an inclined plane having a ratio of 1 m measured vertically to 20 m measured horizontally rising to an imaginary horizontal line drawn at right angles to the projected centre line of the strip and distant 2 500 m measured horizontally from the end of the strip; the outer ends of the imaginary horizontal line being 280 m from the projected centre line; said imaginary horizontal line being 125 m measured vertically above the elevation at the end of the strip.

PART IIIDescription of the Outer Surface

The outer surface, shown on Thompson Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2647 dated June 7, 1988, is an imaginary surface located at a common plane established at a constant elevation of 45 m above the elevation of the airport reference point, except that, where that common plane is less than 9 m above the surface of the ground, the outer surface is an imaginary surface located at 9 m above the surface of the ground.

PART IVDescription of the Strips

The strips shown on Thompson Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2647 dated June 7, 1988, are described as follows:

  • (a) the strip associated with runway 05-23 is 300 m in width, 150 m being on each side of the centre line of the runway, and 1 888 m in length; and

  • (b) the strip associated with runway 14-32 is 60 m in width, 30 m being on each side of the centre line of the runway, and 822 m in length.

The transitional surfaces, shown on Thompson Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2647 dated June 7, 1988, are described as follows:

  • (a) the transitional surface associated with runway 05-23 is a surface consisting of an inclined plane rising at a ratio of 1 m measured vertically to 7 m measured horizontally at right angles to the centre line and projected centre line of the strip and extending upward and outward from the lateral limits of the strip and its approach surfaces to an intersection with the outer surface or another transitional surface of an adjoining strip; and

  • (b) the transitional surface associated with runway 14-32 is a surface consisting of an inclined plane rising at a ratio of 1 m measured vertically to 5 m measured horizontally at right angles to the centre line and projected centre line of the strip and extending upward and outward from the lateral limits of the strip and its approach surfaces to an intersection with the outer surface of another transitional surface of an adjoining strip.

PART VIDescription of the Outer Limits

The boundary of the outer limits of lands, shown on Thompson Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2647 dated June 7, 1988, is described as follows:

COMMENCING at a point on the northeasterly limit of Block F, Plan 4856, Neepawa Land Titles, where it is intersected by the circumference of a circle having a radius of 4 000 metres and centred on the airport reference point as described in Part I of the Schedule;

THENCE southeasterly along the northeasterly limit of Block F to the southeast corner thereof;

THENCE southwesterly along the southeasterly limit of Block F to the southwesterly corner thereof;

THENCE southwesterly in a straight line to the most northerly corner of Mystery Lake Road as shown on Plan 768, Neepawa Land Titles;

THENCE southwesterly along the northwesterly limit of Mystery Lake Road to an intersection with the northeasterly limit of Plan 5164, Neepawa Land Titles;

THENCE northwesterly along the northeasterly limit of Plan 5164, Neepawa Land Titles, to an intersection with the circumference of a circle having a radius of 4 000 metres and centred at the Airport reference point as described in Part I of the Schedule;

THENCE westerly following the circumference of the said circle clockwise to the point of commencement.
