Part 150 planning aims to improve land-use planning through which type of measures?

• A. Airport development measures
• B. Administrative measures
• C. Environmental measures
• D. Operational measures

Answer: (A)

Part 150 planning uses airport development measures to guide how land around an airport is used, ensuring growth is compatible with aircraft operations and noise considerations. These measures involve actions tied to how the airport itself develops and expands—such as adjustments to runways, flight paths, or facility needs—so that local land-use decisions (zoning, building codes, and development plans) can align with the airport’s noise contours and safety requirements. This focus on shaping airport growth and its interaction with surrounding land use makes airport development measures the most fitting way Part 150 planning aims to improve land-use planning.
