According to the news article on the new beach vendor rules...the BCC has decided that drones will now be getting some regulation.
Someone will correct me if I'm wrong I'm sure but... under what authority does the BCC have to regulate air space?
Second 2 part question...doesn't the FAA certify drone pilots and don't they have to follow federal regulations as well??

The FAA's office of legal counsel put out guidance for local/state governments on what they should/should not regulate without consulting with the FAA. It's a couple of years old so there may be updates; but it's an interesting read - especially the examples toward the bottom of the document. Here's a link:

Good find. Thanks. Pretty much backs up what has already been said about it being unenforceable unless they have entered into some sort of agreement with the FAA which would be a stretch IMHO
