This goes back to what I have been saying all along about the administration lacking transparency with the council and public. The departments make up their own rules and don’t bother sharing them with our city legislative body;
Central services staff came up with a set of policies for the drone, which was reviewed by the risk management department.
So not only did they go buy a ‘toy’ without council approval and checking FAA rules, they came up with their own set of rules. That’s like saying since I own my car, I can drive it as fast as I want to.
Before the drone goes back in commission, the city council needs to review all of the rules and policies pertaining to it’s usage.
