Okla. Stat. tit. 3, § 3-65.2v1: General powers of municipalities in the establishment,

acquisition, operation and maintenance of airports, vertiports, and

air navigation facilities.

(a) Establishment, Operation, Land Acquisition. Every

municipality is authorized, out of any appropriations or other

monies made available for such purpose, to plan, establish, develop,

construct, enlarge, improve, maintain, equip, operate, regulate,

protect and police airports, vertiports, and air navigation

facilities, either within or without the territorial limits of such

municipality and within or without the territorial boundaries of

this state, including the construction, installation, equipment,

maintenance and operation at such airports of buildings and other

facilities for the servicing of aircraft or for the comfort and

accommodation of air travelers, and the purchase and sale of

supplies, goods and commodities as an incident to the operation of

its airport properties. For such purposes the municipality may use

any available property that it may now or hereafter own or control

and may, by purchase, gift, devise, lease, eminent domain

proceedings or otherwise, acquire property, real or personal, or any

interest therein including easements in airport hazards or land

outside the boundaries of an airport, vertiport, or airport site as

are necessary to permit safe and efficient operation of the airport

or vertiport or to permit the removal, elimination, obstruction-

marking or obstruction-lighting of airport hazards or to prevent the

establishment of airport hazards.

(b) Acquisition of Existing Airports. Any municipality may by

purchase, gift, devise or lease acquire existing airports,

vertiports, and air navigation facilities, provided however it shall

not acquire or take over any airport or air navigation facility

without the consent of the owner thereof.

(c) Establishment of Airports on Public Waters and Reclaimed

Lands. For the purposes of this act, a municipality may establish

or acquire and maintain, within or bordering upon the territorial

limits of the municipality, airports in, over and upon, any public

waters of this state, any submerged lands under such public waters,

and any artificial or reclaimed lands which before the artificial

making or reclamation thereof constituted a portion of the submerged

lands under such public waters; and may construct and maintain

terminal building, landing floats, causeways, roadways and bridges

for approaches to or connecting with any such airport, and landing

floats and breakwaters for the protection thereof.

(d) Limitation on Design and Operation of Air Navigation

Facilities. All air navigation facilities established or operated

by municipalities shall be supplementary to and coordinated in

design and operation with those established and operated by the

federal and state governments.
