HMMMM, in stead of sound proofing houses that are going to be torn down anyways....... why not start buying these houses up at a faster pace ???? Why is the voluntary home acquisition program going to take place after the expansion has been completed ??? does that make sense to you? The more sesonable thing to do, and the more humane thing to do is to start twith the mandatory than voluntary home acquisition program and finish that up by 2017. I read an article here in the beacon that says the voluntary home acquisition program may take 15 years or more. That is a very long time needless to say.

It is time to start making the people that have put up with the airports nonsense a priority.

Now is the time to buy them up !! Fair market house values are not as high. You wait 15 years and they may go back up to 2006 prices. At least with the record low interest rates home owners can withstand that loss because on the flip side houses are not as expensive and interest rates are historic.

I wish the politicians who approved this would follow up with RIAC with getting the voluntary home acquisition program completed as quickly as possible. This sound proofing is just a waste of money and non sense. Note the article says some houses already have been sound proofed so this to me sounds like a cover up story to appease people longer.

Time to get real about RIAC and this project. To do it correclty they need to be mailing people letters of offers. That way there people know what to expect, RIAC will know who is going to sell and who is not. Because not everyone wants to move. Those who stay can have their houses sound proofed further.

That $30 million could buy so many more homes at a faster rate instead of making the people wait up to 15 years !!! In fact, it may cover almost all over the homes to be bought under the voluntary program.

So what happens to the extra money for homes that already have the sound proofing? What happens to the extra money when $30 million is needed for that project? Are the houses that will be sound proofed going to be torn down a few years from now?

From: Airport to sound insulate 440 homes over next 4 years
