  Our Goals

  • Relief and protection for residents
  • Reliable county commitment to a no-expansion airport policy*
  • Meaningful stakeholder involvement in planning and policy-making
  • Incorporation of Expansion Assessments into all plans & projects
  • Better airpo rt oversight (funded by the airport, not taxpayers) and maximum local control

  Vision statement

     This brief white paper sums up who we are and what we are trying to accomplish.

  A powerful network

     Our coalition represents a strong and growing network uniting families, organizations, and businesses who care 
     about minimizing harmful airport impacts and risks.  Join with us today.
      * This means primarily limiting the airport's capacity to serve more non-commercial private, corporate, and charter aircraft, which represent 85% of flights.  To this end, the County Legislature passed resolution 245-2003 (view here).  Residents have a right to rely on this longstanding county policy opposing airport expansion.  County law regulates airlines and allows more flights only when the terminal is not at "capacity" and around holidays. 

Why This Coalition?

Westchester County owns and oversees operation of the county airport, the third busiest in New York State, 
which lies adjacent to the Kensico Reservoir, the source of drinking water for 9 million people in Westchester and New York City.  
For this reason alone, the airport could never be built at its location today.  Still, coalition members seek to be good neighbors
while insisting that the airport and its users do the same, as promised in the County's Airport Environmental Policy Statement.

Our coalition brings together community and environmental organizations, families, individuals, and businesses 
who all make Westchester County and the surrounding area their home and care about its long-term health and well-being.
Together, we watchdog the airport and insist our elected officials uphold the County's longstanding policy against airport expansion.

There’s just one thing missing:  You.  Will you add your name to our growing list of supporters?
Powerful interests back airport expansion and we can only prevail with your help.  Will you lend a hand?
Contribute funding for our activities?  Or are you looking for assistance yourself?  We invite you to become part of our community!
