I picture another faction saying "OK, we'll set up our own starport". Sorry kid, regs say one imperial port per world. But what if a ship in distress lands at our airport with its reinforced concrete runway? Oh, in an emergency that's just fine…

One world my players visited had a fence - so they could keep the sheep off the field when it was in use for shipping.
Another had no fence at all - the the 'port' was on top of a mesa with rather steep sides. Access was via a rope bridge that swung alarmingly in the wind and creaked ominously when used by heavily laden characters.
