Section 23-1-371 Formulation, adoption, of aircraft approach plans; airspace reservations.
(a) The Legislature finds that an airport hazard endangers the lives and property of the general
public, the users of airports, and the occupants of land in their vicinity, and reduces the
size of the area available for the landing, taking off, and maneuvering of aircraft, thus
tending to destroy or impair the utility of the airport and the public investment therein.
Accordingly, the creation, establishment, or maintenance of an airport hazard is a public
nuisance and harms the community served by the affected airport; it is therefore necessary
in the interest of the public health and safety and general welfare that the creation or establishment
of airport hazards be prevented and both the prevention of the creation or establishment of
airport hazards and the elimination, removal, alteration, mitigation, abatement, or marking
or lighting of existing airport hazards are public purposes for which...
