HB3190

AERONAUTICS-UNMANNED AIRCRAFT

Chamber Passed·4/15/26

HB3190 regulates the use of unmanned aircraft systems in Illinois, emphasizing state oversight and limiting local government authority.

HB3190 amends the Illinois Aeronautics Act to clarify that the regulation of unmanned aircraft systems is an exclusive state power. It prohibits local governments from enacting ordinances to regulate these systems, except for those in municipalities with over one million inhabitants. The bill allows local governments to adopt reasonable rules for private use of airspace above public property for recreational or conservation purposes, provided these rules do not conflict with federal laws or impede commercial operations related to critical infrastructure.
