Ordinance No. 20-03-01 Prepared by: City Attorney No. of Attachments 3 Presented by: City Attorney Item: Ordinance amending Chapter 10 – Aviation of the City Code regarding permitted drone flight areas and the penalty classification. City Manager’s Proposed Action: Motion by ___________ second by _________ to approve 2nd reading of Ordinance No. 20-03- 01. Overview: The primary purpose of the amendment is to add the Moccasin Creek Soccer Complex as a permitted drone flight area. The amendment to Sec. 10-2(5) would establish a total of five large areas on public property within city limits for use by recreational drone operators. The amendment also does some housekeeping at Sec. 10-4(1) by stating the Class 2 misdemeanor classification for a violation by an adult but deleting the specific penalty language. This change is consistent with the 2019 recodification of the Aberdeen City Code. Primary Issues/Alternatives to Consider: Budgetary/Fiscal Issues: Attachments: 1. Ordinance No. 20-03-01 2. Map of Soccer Field Complex showing permitted flight zone 3. Revised map of all permitted flight zones Rev 7/09 03/12/2020 Page 9 of 52 First Reading: March 3, 2020 Second Reading: Final Adoption: Published: Effective Date: ORDINANCE NO. 20-03-01 AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 10 – AVIATION OF THE ABERDEEN CITY CODE REGARDING DRONES WHEREAS, the Aberdeen City Council reaffirms the rationale and purposes for Ordinance No. 15-12-04 as set forth therein; and WHEREAS, pursuant to its home rule power, the City of Aberdeen may exercise any power and perform any function relating to its government and affairs, including the power to regulate for the protection of the public health, safety, morals, and welfare; and WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that the following ordinance will protect the health, safety, and property of Aberdeen citizens and visitors and further their reasonable privacy interests, and advance the interests of the City of Aberdeen.
