2.    A political subdivision may not impose a tax on, or require a license for, a transportation network company, transportation network company driver, delivery network company, or a delivery network company driver or subject a transportation network company or delivery network company to the political subdivision’s rate, entry, operational, or other requirements.

3.    This chapter may not be construed to limit the ability of a commercial service airport or the governing body of a commercial service airport to enter an operating agreement with a transportation network company which authorizes operational access to the commercial service airport. An operating agreement entered under this subsection may provide guidelines for entry, pick-up, drop-off, fees, and other airport operational procedures required by the commercial service airport for the transportation network company to be allowed operational access to the commercial service airport.
