TO AMEND THE LAW CONCERNING DETACHMENT BY A REGIONAL AIRPORT AUTHORITY; AND TO REPEAL REGIONAL AIRPORT AUTHORITY DETACHMENT.

Senate Bill 96 (SB 96) proposed to amend and repeal laws concerning how regional airport authorities can detach from municipalities. The bill aimed to repeal the existing detailed legal framework that outlines the process for regional airport authorities to separate from a city or town. In its place, it would have allowed an airport authority to detach from a municipality with a majority vote of its board of directors if the municipality containing the airport property merges with, is annexed by, or consolidates with another municipality. This would have streamlined the detachment process for regional airport authorities in specific merger or annexation scenarios.
