FACILITIES PROGRAMMING. Terminal area facility needs will be examined to determine the type and magnitude of facilities to be ultimately planned and programmed for the airport. Specific allocations of the type and magnitude of such facilities will be noted as a basis for the recommendations for improvements. The facilities requirements analysis focuses on the actual physical facilities and associated improvements needed to safely and efficiently accommodate the projected demands on terminal area facilities. On the landside, the focus will be on the quantity and areas needed for the terminal building itself, along with terminal support facilities (including vehicle parking, ground transportation considerations, and landside access). On the airside of the terminal building, the analysis will focus on the terminal aircraft parking apron in accordance with industry trends relative to commercial aircraft.
