Airspace is not subject to Villages ordinances or policies. It is regulated by the FAA.
The federal rules under 107 are the legal restrictions. Beyond that, there are things one might not want to do in order to remain a "good neighbor" and not attract law enforcement.
The State and Local laws focus on where a drone can land or lift off from. There are legal arguments that laws restricting where flying can happen are invalid because they are overruled by federal law.
The rules about cameras looking where someone has a reasonable expectation of privacy are quite valid.
