Local TREND. 3 Types of Ordinances on Drone Regulations & 3 Local Policy Concerns

3 Ways Colorado cities are proposing to regulate drones:

  • Allow residents to shoot down drones (ordinance failed to pass in Deer Trail, CO)
  •  Limit the methods of piloting a drone beyond that which the FAA has already designated (Newton, CO)
  • Greenwood. CO is using existing ordinances prohibit photographs, nuisances & harassment

The local governments raise the following policy reasons:

  • protect the quality of life of residents
  • protect privacy
  • limit recording of concerts and events by drone
