A price no-one will be willing to pay, therefor PEEL win, regardless of the consultation outcome, they know what they want to do with the land. ROI is tenfold of the airport income, and the council are not interested in saving it, they'd get a nice new income of rates etc.
Hope they've got a contingency plan in place for the management who have run this airport into the ground over the last few years when they begin to cry.
