Still, to meet rising demand there is a need for new runways, airport clear zone expansion and runway extensions. How and where such capacity expansions can be accomplished, while meeting community concerns, is a difficult public policy issue.
Lasting solutions will likely require action by state agencies and the legislature. A number of airport owners and operators say that they would like to see the state buy land around all threatened general aviation airports, outside of the airport boundaries, to insure the preservation of these airports and prevent encroachment by incompatible development. Furthermore, they would like to see the state take a proactive roll in protection of airport lands through zoning and land use. The cost of defending against increasing pressures can be crippling to small airports.
The General Aviation Study Commission Report of 1997 3 offered seven recommendations:
.  
Revisions of New Jersey’s Property Tax Laws. Such revisions would look to alleviate the inequitable tax burdens placed on private owners of public use airports.

.  
Establishment of Airport Zones. The Commission recommended the creation of an “airport zone” under Municipal Land Use Law. Such a zone would operate in the manner of a hospital, commercial, or residential zone but would provide the opportunity for NJDOT to regulate development within these zones.

.  
Establishing Programs Enabling Airport Owners to Sell Development Rights.

The Commission recommended that the state establish a program which would
allow private airport owners to sell their development rights to other private
parties or to the state. The state would stand ready to purchase development rights
if they were offered.
.  
Expand Capital Improvement Funding. The Commission recommended that the state offer an aggressive expansion of capital improvement funding for airports for land acquisition, airport lighting, and Automated Weather Observation Systems (AWOS).

.  
Establish the NJDOT as the Exclusive Agency to Determine Airport Improvement and Environmental Issues. The NJDOT would be empowered to administer all laws and regulations regarding land use and environmental protection within “airport zones.” Safety considerations would supersede environmental protection where NJDOT finds that the two are in conflict.

.  
Secure a Right of Refusal Exercisable in the Event an Airport Seeks to

Change Its Use. The Commission recommended that any grant of State Aid given to a GA facility be on the condition that (1) the airport have an airport committee (a committee made up of airport owners, users, and members of the community in which it lies); and (2) the airport has agreed to give the State first right of refusal to purchase the airport at the same price that a bona-fide third party purchaser has agreed to pay.
.  Standardization of Rules and Regulations. The Commission recommended that the NJDOT define in detail the facilities of a model airport for the state in accord with the foregoing recommendations and give notice that the NJDOT alone will regulate activities and standards at New Jersey airports. The model would incorporate all appropriate standards for safety, noise containment and for economic viability of the airport.
