Recreational drones must follow FAA rules: register drones over 0.55 lb, pass TRUST test, fly under 400 ft AGL, stay within line of sight, avoid airports. Georgia §6-1-4 preempts most local drone laws. Suwanee parks require permission for takeoff/landing.
Peachtree-Briscoe Field (LZU) is ~5 miles north; operations within 5-mile radius need LAANC authorization. No flights over Suwanee's outdoor events or emergency scenes. Privacy nuisance laws still apply. This recreational drones rule under Suwanee's drones ordinances applies to properties within Suwanee city limits. For current statutory text, amendments, enforcement procedures, fines, appeal options, and any exemptions that may apply to your situation, contact Suwanee code enforcement directly or consult the official Georgia municipal code library. Ordinances change periodically; always verify with local staff before relying on summary information.
