Palomar Airport commercial expansion and aircraft noise
San Marcos
Summary
Two residents pressed the council about Palomar Airport's shift toward commercial jet service — American Airlines already flies there and United starts four daily flights next month. Residents say jets pass as low as 100 feet over homes and want the city to back Vista and Carlsbad in opposing expansion.
