Download or read book Sovereign Immunity for Public Airport Operators written by and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the common law concept that, as ruler of the country, the sovereign (government) cannot be sued unless it consents. The Eleventh Amendment to the United States Constitution codified this protection for states, protecting them from being sued in federal courts. While the basic principle remains today, it has been the subject of legislative enactments at the federal and state levels that circumscribe, limit, or otherwise waive sovereign immunity. Since local governmental entities are not recognized as sovereigns in their own right, they derive their sovereign immunity from state legislation and exercise only those sovereign powers delegated to them by the states. Most public airports are owned and operated by units of local government or regional governmental authorities. Therefore, the extent of sovereign immunity granted to airports varies from state to state. This digest provides an overview of sovereign immunity as it applies to airports and provides a state-by-state summary of each state's statutory authority and relevant case law. Appendix A provides a table of cases, and Appendix B contains a chart of authorities.
Download or read book Airport Regulation Law and Public Policy written by Robert M. Hardaway and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1991-07-19 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dramatic rise in air traffic, together with rapid residential and commercial development around our metropolitan areas, has strained the capacity of airports to serve the public safely and efficiently. Hardaway's book explores this problem in depth. Drawing on both the hands-on expertise of professionals in the field and a thorough grounding in law and public policy, it looks at the laws governing airport development and addresses the complex regulatory and policy issues surrounding the construction, expansion, and operation of airports. Beginning with a review of airport regulation from 1903 onward, Hardaway examines aspects of regulatory power, including federal and local authority, local proprietorship, and citizens' concerns. Chapters on airport planning, financing, and operation have been contributed by experts with practical experience in these fields. The question of civil rights in employment and marketplace competition is also considered. Other topics addressed are local, state, and federal regulation of noise; responses to the terrorist threat; the airport as a public forum for free speech and the exercise of religion; the economics of regulation; and the impact of anti-trust legislation. Offering constructive proposals for policy development as well as detailed analysis of current problems, this book will be appropriate reading for students, educators, and professionals concerned with air transportation development, management, policy, and law.

Download or read book Compensating Landowners in the Vicinity of Airports written by Magdalena Habdas and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-11-22 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to consider the neighbour conflict arising between airports and neighbouring owners of land, particularly with residential uses, as well as to assess the existing solutions applied to manage or resolve that conflict. The book explains why the neighbour conflict between the airport and landowners is of a particular kind and what legal instruments are applied to address it in an attempt to balance the interests of opposing parties. Readers will develop an understanding of how the law operates when damage is caused by a legal act of the government and what the limits of compensable loss are. In addition, the reader will discover the economic foundations of possible solutions and why not all market losses are legally compensable. Key features of this book include: a consideration of key legal concepts such as neighbour law, nuisance, protection of property, land use restrictions, liability, and compensation to inform a unique analysis of neighbour law in the context of conflict between airports and neighbouring landowners; practical guidance on an airport’s legal liability towards neighbouring landowners; a comparative analysis of airport’s liability, compensation claims, their scope and economic effects; a comparative overview of planning and environmental solutions applied in a variety of jurisdictions; a discussion of valuation methods and challenges when loss of property value is the measure of compensation. The Author’s intention is to promote conscious and civil relations among market participants, as opposed to opportunistic and speculative behaviour. This book is important reading for lawyers, academics, PhD students and postgraduate students dealing with land use regulations, environmental law, compulsory purchase, eminent domain and expropriation issues, compensation for property restrictions, as well as with aviation law and legal aspects of airport operations.

Download or read book Achieving Airport compatible Land Uses and Minimizing Hazardous Obstructions in Navigable Airspace written by Jocelyn Waite and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2012 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report discusses airport compatible land use requirements, the legal issues related to achieving airport compatible land use, and legal issues particular to eliminating hazardous obstructions to airspace. The report concludes by reviewing the major legal issues of concern in achieving airport-compatible land use. While general legal principles relevant to airport land use are well established, they are often applied on a case by case basis, particularly in the context of regulatory takings and inverse condemnation. This ad hoc analysis introduces, if not an element of unpredictability, at least some variation in the law by jurisdiction. The need for greater predictability highlights the significance of including airport zoning as part of comprehensive land use planning. This report should be helpful to airport administrators, attorneys, board members, financial officers, community members in the vicinity of airports, realtors, and city and county zoning officials.
