Bill Summary
An Act to require that a state agency consult with the Aeronautics Commission prior to purchasing, transferring, or disposing of a state owned and operated aircraft.
AI Summary
This bill amends existing law to require that any state agency, with certain exceptions, must consult with the Aeronautics Commission before buying, selling, or transferring any state-owned aircraft, excluding drones or unmanned aircraft systems as defined by law. The Aeronautics Commission, which operates within a larger department and provides advice on aviation matters, will offer its expertise in a written report to the Governor and the agency involved. This requirement does not apply to the Board of Regents or its higher education institutions if they determine the aircraft is primarily used for educational purposes.
