Airport master plans are intended to inform the planning process and the
preparation of them provides an opportunity for local communities to engage with
airports on future development.
TAG Farnborough Airport is not currently required by the Government to produce a
master plan. However, TAG Aviation, the owner and operator, has decided to prepare
a voluntary master plan in order to better inform the local community about the
Airport and its operation, and to assist in providing background information for the
preparation by Rushmoor Borough Council of a Local Development Framework and
deal with any application for planning permission.
The Master Plan does not seek to determine planning policies for the Airport, or to
decide on restrictions that may be imposed on use of the Airport. These are matters
that will be dealt with by the Council as part of its public consultation for the Local
Development Framework.
