Started by Alderman Nicholas Sposato 12 years ago
We, the undersigned, are concerned citizens who request that the Federal Aviation Administration and FAA Administrator Michael Huerta hold a new round of public hearings on the impact of the O'Hare Modernization Plan on the neighborhoods affected by the increase in airplane noise. Since Runway 10C/28C became operational in October of 2013 affected residents have received little information from the Chicago Department of Aviation or from the Federal Aviation Administration regarding airspace and flight configuration or increase in noise levels. In addition we call on the FAA to expedite their noise and environmental impact study allowing affected homeowners to receive assistance in soundproofing their homes through the expansion of the soundproofing program.

Updates

July 17, 2014

The momentum is shifting. This surge proves the FAA cannot ignore our neighborhoods any longer.

The airport planes taking off and landing extremely loud noises has significantly disrupted and diminished my quality of life. I also fear for my life at times. The planes fly so low! My home shakes.

I replaced my windows when I bought the house 18 months ago because it was needed, now I can't even sleep with them open and am seriously questioning putting any more money into the house as the noise from above makes conversation impossible outside as well...makes me really sad I have to live in the city, this is just the icing on the cake...#heldhostage!

Not enjoying my neighborhood anymore, or the fact that I can no longer get a good night's rest. I feel that O'Hare should at least provide O'Hare neighborhood citizens with sound proofing. Just awful. Not looking forward to the additional runways.
