JERSEY CITY, NJ — On May 29 County Executive Guy and Kearny Mayor Carol Jean Doyle met with Jeff Hyman, CEO of HHI Heliport in Kearny, to express concerns about increased helicopter activity in parts of Hudson County.
“We had a productive meeting with CEO Jeff Hyman of HHI Heliport regarding grave concerns we and county residents have about increased low altitude helicopter activity. We agreed that there are items we could work to immediately address, while there are some issues that remain under the control of the Federal Aviation Administration.
“We are constantly hearing from people throughout the county, especially residents of Jersey City and Hoboken, whose lives are being disrupted by constant helicopter flights. Furthermore, Kearny has deep concerns about the facility’s hours of operation, which exceed what was originally represented.
“The people of Hudson County deserve straight answers and full transparency, and we are committed to continuing meeting with Mr. Hyman as well as members of our federal delegation, particularly Congressman Rob Menendez, to address all matters and bring relief to our citizens.”
