HACKENSACK, N.J. — Hackensack is fed up with planes roaring over its neighborhoods, and city leaders want federal officials to change course.

Mayor Caseen Gaines and the City Council have approved a resolution demanding action to reduce noise from low-flying aircraft arriving at Teterboro Airport.

The borough says the constant flights bring more than just ear-splitting noise, citing ground vibrations and exhaust emissions that disrupt homes, parks and everyday life.

And Hackensack says the problem is largely avoidable.

Air traffic data cited by city officials show that Runway 19 handled nearly half of Teterboro’s arrivals over the past two years. Meanwhile, an FAA-approved alternate approach designed to steer planes away from homes, parks and schools was used less than 2 percent of the time.

The resolution calls on the Federal Aviation Administration and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to make greater use of that alternate approach when conditions allow and to spread arrivals more evenly instead of concentrating flights over Hackensack and neighboring communities.

“These persistent aviation impacts are not felt by Hackensack alone, but place an unfair, compounded burden across residential neighborhoods throughout central Bergen County,” the resolution states.

Hackensack is joining a growing regional push for relief. Paramus Mayor Christopher DiPiazza recently approved a similar resolution targeting the use of Teterboro’s southern approach and Runway 19.

Teterboro has a voluntary Quiet Flying Program that asks pilots to follow noise-reduction practices and avoid nonessential flights between 11 p.m. and 6 a.m. The airport also has noise limits and penalties for repeat violations.

But Hackensack officials want more than voluntary measures. They are asking federal and regional authorities to use existing flight-path options more consistently to reduce the burden on residential neighborhoods.

Residents can file noise complaints through the Teterboro Airport noise complaint portal or call the airport’s noise hotline at 800-225-1071.
