§ 20.13.090. Installation and maintenance of markers or lights on structures or trees—Penalty.

In granting any permit or variance under Section 20.13.060 or 20.13.080, the director of aviation or board may, if it deems such an action advisable to carry out the purposes of this chapter and reasonable in the circumstances, so condition the permit or variance as to require the owner of the structure or tree in question to permit the county to install, operate and maintain thereon, at the owner's expense, such markers and lights as may be necessary to indicate to aviators the presence of a hazard to flight. The county may, with the permission of the owner and at its own expense, install and operate, upon nonconforming structures existing at the time these regulations are adopted, such markers or lights as may be necessary. After initial installation, the county may, upon written notice to the owner, require him to maintain those markers or lights in conformance with the standards of the FAA. Any person who fails to install, operate or maintain a marker or light or pay the expenses required in this section is guilty of a misdemeanor.
