An act relating to municipal regulation of private airstrips

This bill clarifies that Vermont municipalities can regulate private airstrips (referred to as "restricted landing areas") through zoning laws. It creates an Aviation Advisory Council with diverse members - including pilots, community representatives, and environmental experts - to advise on aviation policy, safety, and community impacts. The bill also requires the Agency of Transportation to track and publicly share flight data (including aircraft type, time, and location) at state-owned airports on a quarterly basis. These changes directly affect municipalities managing land use, aviation users, and the public seeking transparency about airport operations.
