The Federal Aviation Administration’s message was clear on Thursday: Properties in the noisiest area around the airport should be bought and rezoned for commercial use.
“We have encouraged the airport to buy every home they can,” FAA Environmental Program Manager Richard Doucette said at the Burlington International Airport community meeting where about 150 residents gathered. He cited levels of noise that were incompatible with healthy living.
