Expansion of LAX Airport Approved

KTLA is reporting that approval has been given by the L.A. Board of Airport Commissioners to proceed with the development of an enlarged runway, a new rental car facility, and a new terminal at the LAX Airport.  While the expansion will no doubt help to reduce much of the intolerable traffic that the airport is known for, it may also drive many local residents who will, due to the expansion, now be subject to increased noise and pollution, from the area.
