Before we support AEGD we need to start asking some hard questions. First and foremost - land ownership. Who owns the land within the AEGD? How will we protect the land from being developed as residential? Have you read about the severe restrictions in regards to business placement near the airport - noise, building heights, etc? The costs of managing sewage that needs to be pumped uphill before it will flow down to the treatment plant? The plans to force potential tenants to do their own stormwater management - with the same challenges as sewage (aerotropolis is at the headwaters of several watersheds)?

Aerotropolis is a huge project with huge problems and little promise of payoff.

If highway access was so important, we wouldn't be giving prime land aside the QEW up to big box retail developments...
