This section is included in your selections.

(1) The following requirements are generally applicable to all commercial and general aviation operators doing business at the Provo Municipal Airport. Additional requirements for specific types of operations are set forth in other chapters of this Title.

(2) A commercial/general aviation operator may be classified as either a Fixed Base Operator (“FBO”) or an Aviation Shop Operator (“ASO”).

(a) A Fixed Base Operator shall engage in at least six (6) commercial aeronautical activities as set forth in Chapter 13.05 of this Title.

(b) An Aviation Shop Operator may provide one (1) or more of the activities or services as set forth in Chapter 13.04 of this Title.

(3) The City recognizes the need for hangar, shop and office facilities for special services operations. The City recognizes also that some operators may not want to offer a full line of services that a fixed base operator offers. Aviation shop operators are encouraged to be tenants of fixed base operators. If suitable permanent facilities cannot be obtained in this manner, an aviation shop operator may construct a facility in an area designated on the airport upon land leased from the City. The terms of the lease shall be determined and plans and specifications shall be approved by the City.

(4) All commercial businesses shall be subject to Provo Municipal Airport Rules and Regulations, one of which states; “There shall be no maintenance for profit conducted on the ramp or in aircraft hangars.” This is not meant to prohibit aircraft owners from performing routine care taking functions such as oil changes, minor adjustments, washing, waxing and the like. However, repairs to aircraft requiring the expertise of a licensed airframe and/or power plant mechanic shall only be performed by those commercial operators licensed to so operate on the airport in their facilities.
