Local Ordinances

The Town of Atoka does not maintain a dedicated municipal drone ordinance. Commercial operators follow FAA Part 107 rules and Tennessee state law. Commercial takeoff and landing from Atoka town parks should be coordinated with the Atoka Parks and Recreation Department. The Atoka Community Center and the town park along Front Street are recreational facilities where drone operations should be coordinated with town staff. Operators working near the industrial areas along Highway 51 or the rail corridor should be aware of private property boundaries and notify facility management before conducting inspections.
