What: Ordinances adopting the Alabama uniform non-traffic citation form for minor offenses and adding a first-offense fine for unlawful drone operation near ticketed events.
Where it stands: Both adopted October 20.
Next: Officer training on the state-law exceptions for licensed operators was urged.
Both ordinances passed the committee. The drone fine is $500 for a first offense under a state law effective October 1; police must still see the operator and check licensing.
