Recreational drone operators must follow FAA rules. Sandy prohibits drone takeoff and landing in city parks except at designated locations and near the airport.
FAA regulations (Part 107 and the Recreational Flyers rule) govern all drone operations. Pilots must register drones over 0.55 lbs, pass the TRUST exam for recreational flight, fly below 400 feet, and avoid controlled airspace without authorization. Sandy Parks and Recreation policy prohibits drone takeoff or landing in most city parks without permission. South Valley Regional Airport controlled airspace covers a portion of Sandy, requiring LAANC authorization.
