Freestanding flagpoles may exceed the maximum structure height permitted by this Code
provided the pole is not located in a single-family or two-family residential district
or on property zoned SPI-AP, poses no restriction or interference with air traffic
associated with any existing or proposed airport, and does not exceed 50 feet in height
in multi-family residential districts and 150 feet in height in other districts. Flagpoles
erected prior to February 1, 2011 that do not conform to these district height limits
shall be deemed legally nonconforming to this Code, provided they do not pose a hazard
to aviation. However, this nonconformity status shall have no bearing on the applicability
of Hillsborough County Aviation Authority Airport Zoning Regulations. Flagpole location
is regulated by Section 6.01.03.I.9 of this Code.
