The purpose of the airport (AP) district is to provide an area in the community that is reserved for Woodlake's municipal airport and a range of land uses that are harmonious with airport activities. Within this district, land shall be reserved for land uses that can tolerate a high level of noise exposure while tolerating the level of risk to health and safety resulting from aircraft over flights.

The AP district will be matched with the "airport" designation detailed in the land use element of Woodlake's general plan to ensure consistency between Woodlake's zoning ordinance and general plan.
