Public Meeting Notice Agenda Midway Noise Compatibility Commission School Sound Insulation Program Sub-Committee January
19, 2010
The Midway School
Sound Insulation Program is designed to reduce aircraft sound levels in schools surrounding Midway Airport. The goal of the program is to provide schools in the Midway area with sound insulation, which may include noise attenuating windows,
additional roofing and ceiling insulation, improved doors, and related measures intended to reduce the transmission of noise into schools.
The Mayor and the Department of Aviation are strongly committed to the School Sound Insulation Program and are ready to provide assistance to schools at each stage of the program. Today, 37
Midway area schools have been sound insulated at a cost of approximately
$78.7 million. Four schools are currently in the construction closeout phase. Approximately
$83.8 million has been spent to date on the schools that are completed and the ones currently underway.
