Some Burlington City Councilors welcomed comments by South Burlington City Council members after a Monday presentation by Burlington International Airport officials regarding sound mitigation and finance.
“It’s been challenging to see this unfold over the years, and it’s not the solution that anyone wants,” Councilor Sharon Bushor, who represents Burlington’s Ward 1, said of the federal home buyouts in the affordable South Burlington neighborhood where the airport is located. Bushor is a member of Burlington’s Board of Finance to which airport officials report.
