SB80 Alabama 2021 Session
Bill Summary
Under existing military land use planning law, a county or a municipality whose territorial boundaries are within two miles of any portion of a military installation is required to give notice to the military installation and an opportunity for review of any local impact. The existing law does not address tall structures and wind energy facilities that could have an adverse impact on military aviation and other operations
This bill would revise these notification and review requirements to require a county or municipality to give an affected military installation notice and an opportunity for review of any proposed tall structure or wind energy facility for potential impacts prior to approving the tall structure or wind energy facility
To amend Sections 11-106-3 and 11-106-4, Code of Alabama 1975, and to add Section 11-106-6 to the Code of Alabama 1975, relating to military land use planning; to further define terms; to require certain reviews to be conducted for any tall structure or wind energy facility regardless of distance from a military installation; to require adequate notice to the military installation of applications to construct tall structures and wind energy facilities to ensure the military installation is able to resolve adverse impacts prior to a local government approving a tall structure or wind energy facility.
