That airport is too DARN close!!!

Now that I have your attention I would like to get your feelings and
thoughts on a situation that has arisen by my dad's house.

Recently 2R2 went in not but a few blocks (straight line) from my dad's
house. I think it is great and he and the neighbors have no problems. Keep
in mind the neighborhood was there first in this case.

Recently, they received notice from the airport commission that there are
now a bunch of restrictions on anyone living with in a 2 mile radius. Some
of the items are that if there are trees or structures other than a home
higher than 50 feet they must be taken down and not replaced. No new
structures can be built. Barns with tin roofs that reflect light must be
painted or changed. And on and on.

Normally the situation is the opposite. The people move in by and airport
and try to close it. This time the airport moved in by the people and are
now mandating controls on peoples rights and space.

What are your thoughts?

FWIW a class action law suit is being organized.

I thought this stuff should have been brought out in a notice of proposed
construction to those in the area that would be affected.
