In addition, the only facilities developed on or adjacent to the <br />airport should be ttose directly invoKed v^ith making it useable and safe. <br />Other Area Systems <br />'Xhis framework focuses on the four metropolitan systems of sewers, transportation, regional pa» ks <br />and airports because the Council has special obligations and responsibilities for them under the <br />'' tropoUtan Land Planning Act Under the Waste Management Act, the Council’s solid waste <br />program has the same status in many respects as the four metropolitan systems and will receive <br />the same level of protection as those systems. However. The Council also has planning <br />responsibilities for several other systems that serve the residents of the .Metropolitan Area. <br />Currently, the Council has adopt^ plans dealing with housing, health, surface water management, <br />juvenile justice and water resources, as well as major position papers on the aging, arts and <br />development disabilities. All of these planning documents and the programs associated with them <br />contrftmte to metropolitan resource management. The Council must direct attention to the <br />impact of this framework and metropolitan system plans on these other area plans and programs, <br />as well as the extent to which the other pianr and programs modify the development and <br />investment frunewOTk and metropolitan system plans. <br />The Council also recognizes that numerous interrelariooships exist among the other area system <br />plans and the metropolitan system plans. Examples include aging and health, transportation and <br />housing, and sewers, solid waste and water resources. <br />For some of the other systems, the relationships arc less obvious. However, all of the sj'stems, <br />whether designated as metropolitan or not, have the following in common: a) assumptions about <br />future directions of area-wide growth and change and reliance on a uniform set of forecasts; b) <br />accountability to Council legislative mandates; c) concern with orderly and economic development; <br />d) adherence to the same process of regional planning and decision-making; and e) reliance on <br />the area’s population for most of their flnancid support. <br />lli-r.
