The city achieves the balance through ongoing partnerships and conversations with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the helicopter industry.
It aims to maintain an economically viable helicopter industry while being responsive to community concerns about helicopter noise and operations.

We achieve that balance through a strong partner in an ongoing conversation with the FAA and with the helicopter industry, recognizing that I think where EDC can have influence in policy is really through those partnerships and through negotiated agreements to try to achieve the right balance between, you know, maintaining an economically viable help or up, but also being responsive to community concerns.
