Avigation Easement What is an Avigation Easement? The intent of the Spokane County Airport Overlay Zone (Chapter 14.702) is to reduce the potential for airport hazards and incompatible development in proximity to the airports in Spokane County (Spokane International, Felts Field, Fairchild Air Force Base, and Deer Park Airport). Prior to issuance of a building permit within any of the airspace and/or Accident Potential Areas defined by the ordinance, property owners shall be required to award an avigation easement to the appropriate airport(s) and shall be required to record such easement with the Spokane County Auditor's Office. The airspace included in the overlay zone extends 30,000 lineal feet outward from the runway(s). Thus property located within 5.7 miles from the airport (measured in a straight line) is affected by the overlay zone. Development close to an airport may be required to restrict height and lighting in order to reduce the hazards to civil aviation.
