With the new tower at CCH (Cape Cod Hospital) the BMA is attempting to
adhere to FAR Part 77, obstructions to Navigation. Here's a link:

Planning, it was a three hour course at Harvard.

Have a great one!

From local paper:

"By Tom J. Sullivan

The line in the sand has been drawn.

We understand you have leadership problems in Barnstable. We empathize
with our Barnstable neighbors, but the voters must step up to the plate
on our behalf.

We don't want your money.

We just want the Barnstable Airport and it's Commissioners to do what is
right. Since 1957 the Barnstable Municipal Airport (BMA) has been
expanding its runway approaches. These approaches go over public and
private land in the Town of Barnstable and the Town of Yarmouth.

Now at a recent Airport Commission meeting the Yarmouth Representative
announced that the approaches would be moved further east into the Town of
Yarmouth. The reason for moving the flight paths now is the new tower
under construction at the hospital.

When will your Airport Commissioners obey the State Laws that regulate
airports?

When will the Airport Commissioners and the Town of Barnstable respect
individual property rights? Federal and State laws require the town to
pay property owners for land takings.

Cotuit councilor Rick Barry is ignoring Barnstable and Yarmouth’s airport
noise pollution with his claim, "the airport was here first, and we
shouldn’t have bought homes in the flight paths."

What has he to say about homes that have been here for decades, and the
flight paths are encroaching over these properties? How would he like
when he is awaken out of a sound sleep at 5:15 AM?

If you want to move into our space, buy our homes.

The time has come for someone in town hall sit down with the property
owners in Barnstable and Yarmouth, after the Airport identifies the
affected property owners, to discuss mitigation for the land takings that
have occurred."
