Such regulations may divide such area into zones, and, within such zones, specify the land uses permitted and regulate and restrict the height to which structures and trees be erected or allowed to grow.\n\n(2) Where an airport is owned or controlled by a political subdivision or by any state institution and any airport hazard area appertaining to such airport is located outside the territorial limits of said political subdivision, within or without the state, the political subdivision owning and controlling the airport or within which the airport owned and controlled by a state institution is located and the political subdivisions within which the airport hazard area is located may, by ordinance or resolution duly adopted, create a joint airport zoning board. Said board shall have the same power to adopt, administer and enforce airport zoning regulations applicable to the airport hazard in question as that vested by subsection (1) in the political subdivisions within which such area is located. Each such joint board shall have as members two representatives appointed by each political subdivision participating in its creation and, in addition, a chairman elected by a majority of the members so appointed.","path":["MS Code","Title 61"],"source_url":"https://legislature.ms.gov/","current_through":"2026-08-14","vintage":"open-us-law v2026.08, retrieved 2026-09-17","retrieved_at":"2026-09-17T20:49:39Z","sha256":"3637c3433c6294856f51b8a0bbdc38233ddc3e7b314d6bd8755739b50e17b2d2","source_id":"us-ms","stale":false,"prev":"us-ms/miss.-code-ann.-61-7-5","next":"us-ms/miss.-code-ann.-61-7-9","notices":[{"id":"open-us-law","title":"Open US Law compilation","text":"Compilation CC BY 4.0, Open US Law (Vaquill AI).
