Execution of order to abate hazard; failure to comply; private owners of public airports. Where an airport is privately-owned but its facilities are open to the public, and the airport, landing field or other aeronautical facility is determined to be public in character and use, the order to abate hazards of the commission shall be served upon both the owner and the political subdivision having jurisdiction in the area upon which the airport, landing field or other aeronautical facility is established. Both the owner and such political subdivision shall immediately begin proceedings under the appropriate effective laws of this state or ordinances of the political subdivision to effectuate the abatement of the hazard. Failure to comply shall make the owner liable to either restrictive use of, or the entire closing of, such facility, in the interest of the safety, health and welfare of the public, and the safe use of aeronautical facilities in this state.
