The term "airport" also includes the term "heliport," which is any area used for the take-off and landing of helicopters that also includes passenger and cargo facilities, fueling, and emergency service facilities.
Landfill means a facility for the disposal of solid waste, other than landfarm(s) or surface impoundment(s), that disposes of solid waste by placing it on or into the land surface and usually also compacting and covering with suitable cover material to a depth and at a frequency sufficient to control disease vectors and odors and in a manner that protects human health and the environment.
Sanitary Landfill means a landfill for the disposal of commercial or residential solid waste by deposit in a landfill in layers covered with suitable cover material of a depth and at a frequency adequate to control disease vectors and odors, and in such a manner that minimizes the risk to human health and the environment. It is located, contoured, and designed so that it will not constitute a source of water pollution.

A floodplain variance is a grant of relief to a person from the requirements of the floodzone regulations when specific enforcement would result in unnecessary hardship. A variance, therefore, permits construction or development in a manner otherwise prohibited by the floodzone regulations.
