N.I.M.F.Y. Ron? You do live across Pioneer Tr. from the airport don't you? You failed to mention that.

Even though you were voted off the city council one would expect you to be more forthright with your public statements.

"Carcinogenic jet fuel"? Do you drive a car? Isn't all petroleum based fuel "carcinogenic"?

"It drains our tax base, takes far more than it gives, and on top of all of that, it floods our city with noise, air and water pollution." This resembles one of those Wikipedia ramblings where the editor makes a note that a citation is needed.

You claim you voted in 2002 to support the expansion because it was politically expedient thing to do. Now it seems you're asking the current council to ignore these same politics, because you see the airport "completely unjustified", (even if they see the merits of an our airport and the benefits an expansion would bring)

You claim that "the thousands who live south of Pioneer Trail, it affects their outdoor living every single day." Housing developments in that area have been going great guns since 2002, the year YOU signed the agreement with MAC providing for an expanded airport.

Eden Prairie is an amazing place to live with a great mix of residential and commercial tax base, the best park and open space system in the Twin Cities, and one of the finest school systems in the state. But like about any city in America, we have our detractions as well: Midwest Asphalt pounding and beeping neighbors in the north; a quarter million cars and trucks a day spewing noise and pollution across bordering neighborhoods, and of course, the airport in the south.
