The Planning & Law Division of the American Planning Association is hosting a webcast about regulating drone technology through zoning – on Mach 13 at 12:30 to 2:00 PM (EDT).  RLUIPA Defense’s own Dwight Merriam, FAICP will be participating in the program.  Here is a description of the webinar:

The educational objective of this course is to discuss the implications of emerging drone technology on city and town planning. Featuring specialists in the fields of law, urban design, and policymaking, this webinar will examine federal and local legislation pertaining to unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Drone operations raise several concerns for the public given their wide range of recreational and commercial current uses. We will discuss regulations pertaining to these issues and explore how future zoning regulations can best guide the use of drones in our built environment.

Registration is available here.  CM and CLE credit will be available.
