Why would residents want to buy into another councils debts? Council/LLAL borrowings and planned borrowings so far comes to over £450m for airport expansion projects and LLAL is still only in its consultation stage. Most of that money is for funding the Dart because the airport operator has refused and for building a 2.2km road into the park. If the DCO is refused by government the council/LLAL will be in deep sh!t.
The Dart was only ever required for a second terminal and with Luton capped and coping without it why has the council jumped the gun? Fully agree the Dart will be a game changer but it will not increase capacity as Luton will hit 18 million a year before it is finished.
