2019 ANNUAL MEETING
Thanks to all of you who attended the 2019 Annual Meeting of the King Merritt Community Association. We had a pleasant evening of socializing with some new neighbors, and even welcomed a friend from the Round Hill Association. While Fred Camillo was unable to attend because of his work in Hartford, representing the interests of Greenwich, we were still treated to two good friends who were informative, educational, and interactive.
As such, a very special Thank You goes to James Heavey, our Chief of Police, and Howard Richman, our Tax Collector. They both were able to bring government a little closer by explaining how things work, why things work, and how to participate in our town's processes. We're very lucky to have people like Jim and Howard working for us. And yes, they're both Greenwich residents, which is critical!
AIRCRAFT NOISE
Did you know that Westchester County Airport has a noise abatement office, designed to maintain good relations with neighboring communities? Did you know that they investigate complaints regarding excessive aircraft noise, such as when planes arrive or depart during overnight hours?
If you need to make a complaint about noisy aircraft, especially those flying during the voluntary curfew between midnight and 6:00am, you can register your complaint on-line at AIRPORT NOISE COMPLAINT
