#StopTheChop#HelicopterNoise
For years, residents have dealt with relentless helicopter noise and safety concerns caused by low-flying aircraft over our communities. Hudson County is standing with our municipalities to demand accountability and fight for the quality of life our residents deserve
Hudson County is taking action against incessant tourist helicopter traffic. County Executive Craig Guy joined Kearny Mayor and local leaders to announce legal action against the South Kearny heliport operator, citing ongoing noise and safety concerns. #StopTheChop
Hudson County officials announced a lawsuit this morning against Kearny's HHI Heliport to curtail non-essential helicopter travel throughout the region.
" ... Every day we play Russian roulette with these helicopters, and the fear of one of these helicopters coming down in an urban area like our towns in Hudson County is unacceptable ..."

The recent LA helicopter crash is a tragic reminder that helicopter operations carry real risks. As investigations continue, itβs another reason to demand safer, more responsible helicopter operations in communities like NYC. #stopthechopnynj

Endless choppers at @FortTryon_Park .
@NYCMayor u promised New Yorkers you'd take care of the non-essential helicopters scourge . They are a menace to the city, & destroy New Yorker's health.
Why let a tiny minority of greedy jerks do this to the people of NYC?

@StoptheChopNYNJ Helicopters over the Upper East Side nonstop this morning β I counted at least 10 before noon. Residents shouldnβt have to live under a tourist flight path.

@NYCMayor we're still waiting for you to keep your campaign promise and regulate the Tourist Helicopter menace. New Yorkers are suffering/ In danger. scammy people are profiting.
@StoptheChopNYNJ
Labor Day holiday in NYC ruined by nonstop, unnecessary tourist and luxury commuter helicopters. NYC has invested more than $3 billion building and restoring waterfront parks, only to destroy the refuge with unending noisy, polluting helicopters.

Hudson County is taking a stand against helicopter noise. Bayonne, Hoboken, Jersey City, and Kearny have joined Hudson County in moving forward with legal action against HHI Heliport over helicopter activity and its impact on residentsβ quality of life.
