Bensenville’s board of trustees has been working to identify solutions to mitigate the negative impacts of the new runway.
“The Village of Bensenville is actively working to identify different methods to address the concerns of our residents over the increased noise caused by Runway 10C/28C," Village President Frank Soto said. "Progress towards noise mitigation now can proactively address future issues for other new runways planned at O’Hare."
