Objective 10 - Respond to the needs of the community
The community has an ongoing expectation that Canberra Airport will meet local
demand for additional flights, as well as a reasonable expectation Airport growth will
not adversely impact on its residential amenity via increased levels of aircraft noise.
Canberra Airport will grow the Airport in response to community and business needs
(note details of ongoing consultation outlined in Chapter 3), whilst continuing to
strongly oppose inappropriate residential development under flight paths. Canberra
Airport also commits to investigating further noise respite measures for existing
residents of the region. These are outlined in detail in Chapter 14.

regional community, as to current and future planned developments at Canberra
Airport. Canberra Airport commits to remaining open and accountable to the
community, and it is intended this, and all future Master Plans, underpin this
commitment.
