I called the dept and i made a comment saying, "what
planes may use the runwy cause they didn't list any. Sure, there was a
discussion I presume but when I addressed that issue that they did not
specify what types of aircraft would be approved I was told first...


Why would they? It's a *private* strip.

They told me many public runways are shorter
than that but they also admitted those runways were likely either
already in an area with minimal room or the city grew around them.


Key phrase: "Public".

Still, a private runway on private property out of town
only needs to be approved by a planning and zoning commission and NO
ONE else.


Have you talked to your neighbor in a constructive manner, yet?

Why are you here? Are you looking for sympathy? Are you looking for help
in keeping your neighbor from building a runway? Would you want the
government telling you *everything* you can do on the land you bought with
your hard-earned money?

It looks like you're just trolling again.

Another interesting bit of trivia the FAA told me was that when they
DO get involved in approving runways, they do not care (not at all)
where the owner's property line ends and the neighbor's property
begins... I.E there is a one thousand foot safety zone according to
Class A "FAA" runway on each end of the runway and the FAA is not
interested if that 1000 feet is the owners property or the neighbors.
This is what the FAA told me.


Remember, there's a difference between "public" and "private" airfields.
