Halt the Expansion of Faison Field to Protect Our Community and Environment

The Issue

Our personal narrative in this endeavor begins a while ago when we escaped the clutches of a crowded and failing city, seeking solace in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood. We spent precious time and resources to find a home that aligns with our values, dreams, and love for nature. The proposed expansion of Faison Field from 3700 feet to an additional 1500 feet, is a dire risk poised to shatter this peaceful existence. This endeavor is to accommodate larger jets, marking a considerable increase in noise and air pollution. We will not stand idle while our homes, property values, and wildlife are placed in jeopardy.

Faison Field's expansion will not only disturb the tranquility of our neighborhood but also depress our property values. Noise pollution has an inarguable negative impact on property prices (Academic Research by Shoup & Fabian, 2013). Moreover, the increased traffic will lead to higher emissions impacting air quality and public health. We will not let our children face these preventable hazards.

Further, the local wildlife has also been thriving due to the balance we've managed to maintain. Faison Field expansion threatens the survival of these creatures by causing habitat loss. The protection of biodiversity is a global responsibility and acting against it would be reprehensible.

Let's band together to prevent this expansion, protect our homes, property values, and local wildlife. Stand up against this proposed expansion for the sake of our community's future and quality of life. It is essential that we keep our neighborhood the quiet, peaceful sanctuary we all moved here to enjoy. Join us and sign this petition to halt the Faison Field expansion. Together, we can make a difference.
