A bill to amend 1945 PA 327, entitled “Aeronautics code of the state of Michigan,” (MCL 259.1 to 259.208) by adding section 206a.
The bill proposes an amendment to the 1945 Aeronautics Code of Michigan by adding section 206a, which outlines regulations for vertiports operated as public use facilities by advanced air mobility operators authorized by the U.S. Department of Transportation or the Federal Aviation Administration. These operators must adhere to FAA rules for vertiport design and performance. The bill also addresses zoning ordinances by political subdivisions, prohibiting exclusive rights to any single advanced air mobility operator and ensuring nonexclusive, reasonable access to vertiports. It restricts local governments from enacting ordinances or policies related to advanced air mobility, except for noise regulations, and defines "advanced air mobility" and "vertiport."
