SR 283 creates a Joint Study Committee to examine Georgia's lack of height restrictions around airports, which currently poses aviation safety risks and could force costly runway modifications or closures at rural airports.

Composed of four Senate members, the transportation commissioner, and municipal/county association leaders, the committee must submit a final report by December 1, 2025. This resolution does not enact new laws but sets the stage for potential future legislation based on its findings.
