Episode Details

Hudson County, along with Jersey City, Hoboken, and Bayonne, is escalating their legal battle against the HHI Heliport in Kearny by moving the case to New Jersey Superior Court. The heliport, located at 165 Western Road, is facing zoning violations for non-essential flights, particularly tourist trips, and the case has been delayed multiple times. The county leaders aim to join Kearny as the lead plaintiff for stronger relief on this public nuisance, as residents and officials from Jersey City to Hoboken are increasingly frustrated with the constant helicopter noise overhead. County Counsel Alberico De Pierro confirmed that the Superior Court filing is imminent, with Kearny drafting the main petition and other towns adding briefs. U.S. Rep Rob Menendez is involved, and an internal committee has been formed to maintain momentum. The multi-town push aims to finally ground those joyrides and restore peace along the Hudson.
