  2. How Land Use Happens • Municipal Planners • Developers • Elected Officials • Infrastructure

  4. Municipal Considerations • Priorities of Municipal Officials • Quality of Life • Growth and Open Space Preservation • Other State and Federal Regulatory requirements

  5. Where Aviation Fits In • Not in the MPC • Not in the education of many planners • Not in the forefront of broader voter or business interests • Not in Quality of Life for most residents

  6. What Now? Options for Aviation • Less Carrot More Stick • Educating Planners and Elected Officials • Amend the MPC • Identify how Aviation fits into Community Priorities

  7. Areas of Shared Concerned • Growth and Open Space Preservation • Agricultural Preservation • Industrial and Economic Development • Overall Land Use Compatibility

  8. Consider the Community Perspective • Take the community perspective when working with communities. Take the aviation hat off. Put the neighbor hat on. • Don’t try to win them over. Become an advocate of community priorities. • Communicate and educate. Listen and learn. • Build strong alliance with business, industry, agriculture, environmental, and open space advocates

  9. Conclusions • Even good neighbors have needs and aspirations • Considering the “other side” has real advantages • There is always common ground, even among seeming adversaries • Use intermediaries to intervene when needed
