I guess I would if I lived by it and I agree he can drive the 5 minutes it takes to get to Amway. It's not like he's the one driving anyway, more likely his personal driver. I don't care if he has a helipad. If I was on the board I would let him have one if he gave me some incentive. Maybe like a cash bonus or donation to the new Roselle Park. Anyway, here are our residents thoughts:
Annika Kavesta of Ada Township commented she is not in favor of the heliport.
Kathleen Richter, 6301 Hall St. Ada stated she had not seen the proposal for the heliport and was thankful the public is
allowed to meetings. She feels it is inappropriate for a heliport in a residential area. She has safety issues in regard. She
acknowledged trees have already been cut down, and the heliport pad is already in place.
Bob Stead, 6530 Ada Dr. - He supplied copies of his position on this to all board members. He stated he is on the flight path
and doesn’t think it is reasonable to have a heliport pad in a residential area, and has noise concerns.
Roger Nicely 6270 Hall St, - He supported what Mr. Stead commented on and did some research in regards to helicopter
accidents; he stated concerns with the safety issues.
Linda Cook, 5700 Michigan St. – She asked Mr. Ferro the reasons why Mr. DeVos feels he needs a helicopter and heliport as
he only lives five minutes from Amway.
John Sarb of Ada Township – stated he was not too concerned with aircraft crashing on his house as he has 757 flying over
his house frequently.
Lloyd Paul, 1268 Pettis – stated he supported the change in the ordinance and felt the first version would be unfair.
Richard Zaagman - Stated he supported the heliport ordinance and is not worried about the safety issues.
Tracy Flanders of Ada Croft – stated support of the heliport.
Kathleen Richter, 6301 Hall St- commented she felt the heliport is very intrusive in her life.
Dane Heydon of Ada Township- stated the heliport project should not be in a residential area, and is concerned with the safety
issues.
