Whereas, the General Assembly believes:
(1) a more competitive air transport system for the Grand Strand area is a key economic development tool for the residents of the area and the public; and
(2) a more competitive air transport system must be developed only through consensus among the people and groups working to improve the governing structure and foster a more competitive operation for the air transport system; and
Whereas, it is the goal of the General Assembly to ensure that:
(1) the public and the residents of the Grand Strand area have access to a competitively operated air transport system as quickly as possible; and
(2) the development of an air transport system with enhanced competitiveness is achieved through a cooperative process of careful and considered evaluation. Now, therefore,
