Plymouth City Airport Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, holds a 150 year lease agreement with Plymouth City Council for the airport (143 years unexpired at a peppercorn rent). The Company will retain the lease following the closure of the airport.
I take it that this means they don't have to hand the airport back to the council but can dig the whole thing up for other uses.

Scandalous.
