TVASNAC Meeting Tonight in Stewart Manor

The next meeting of the Town-Village Aircraft Safety & Noise Abatement (TVASNAC) will take place Monday at 7:30 p.m. for the first time ever in Stewart Manor at the Stewart Manor Country Club located at 51 Salisbury Avenue. Parking is available off Elton Road in the rear of the club.

This group is sponsored by the Town of Hempstead.

This meeting will focus on the benefits and challenges of conducting a Part 150 study, a voluntary program that U.S. airports may undertake to seek a balance between their operational needs and the noise impacts their operations have on surrounding neighborhoods.

According to Quiet Skies over Garden City between Aug. 1-3 there was a record 39 hours of straight air traffic non-stop over the area.

Henry A.F. Young of Young Environmental Sciences, Inc., an aviation consultant from Manhasset, will speak.

TVASNAC members include Atlantic Beach, Cedarhurst, East Williston, Floral Park, Garden City, Hewlett Harbor, Inwood, Lawrence, Long Beach, Malverne, New Hyde Park, Stewart Manor, Valley Stream, and Woodsburgh.
