Background:
|
On June 29, 2017, the Board adopted Resolution 1617R-003 by Director Falk regarding the development of an MPS policy governing the use of drones.
For the purpose of the policy, the term "drone" refers to all Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, and any other device invented, used, or designed to navigate or fly in the air or maneuver over the ground, that is operated without human intervention from within or on the aircraft. Also for the purposes of the policy, the term "district property" includes, but is not limited to, all school buildings, field houses, playfields, stadiums, playgrounds, parking lots, and other district facilities.
Since that time, a collaboration that included staff from the Office of the Superintendent, Office of Board Governance, Procurement and Risk Management, Athletics, School Safety and Security, Communications and Outreach, and Facilities and Maintenance has conducted a thorough review consistent with the Board's action to develop the content for the proposed policy to include:
1. Reviewing drone policies developed by other Wisconsin school districts;
2. Researching information provided by the WIAA regarding the use of drones at sporting events;
3. Meeting with the City Attorney for guidance on the development of the proposed policy; and,
4. Continuing to use information provided by the Wisconsin Association of School Boards (WASB) to guide development of the proposed policy.
Some of the key components of the proposed policy include prior authorization
