Northfield council gives first reading to drone ordinance
Summary
Law Director Brad Bryan read Ordinance No. 2022-53 (enacting Section 642.18 on drones/unmanned aerial vehicles) on first reading and said it will advance to a second reading; the transcript does not include the ordinance's substantive provisions.
At the Sept. 28 Village of Northfield council meeting Law Director Brad Bryan read Ordinance No. 2022-53 by title on first reading.
Bryan identified the measure as "An Emergency Ordinance Enacting Section 642.18 of the Codified Ordinances Relating to Drones; Unmanned Aerial Vehicles" and stated, "This Ordinance will advance to a second reading at the next Council Meeting." The transcript contains no policy text or explanation of the ordinance's provisions, restrictions, or intended enforcement mechanisms.
Because the item received only a title reading, council did not vote on the ordinance at this meeting. The item remains scheduled for a second reading at a future meeting, where council may discuss details or move toward passage.
Residents with interest in potential operational restrictions or enforcement provisions should review the ordinance text when it is posted or contact the clerk's office for the full draft.
