10. Next steps
10.0 INTRODUCTION
The aim of the Local Area Plan is to facilitate the sustainable development of the Airport in line with national, regional and local policy. In ensuring protection of core airport function, regard has been had to the receiving environment surrounding the Airport. Many of the objectives set out in the LAP aim to ensure that development at the Airport maintains or improves the surface waters, transportation, energy and design outcomes. This section of the LAP aims to set out the relevant objectives which require review, additional strategy development or monitoring and identify the relevant timeframe for the next step to be undertaken along with the department or authority designated for implementation.
