Section 59A. The Massachusetts Port Authority shall expend not less than $2,500,000 within 18 months for homes and school buildings in the town of Milton in the Boston Logan Airport Sound Insulation program; provided, however, that if homes and school buildings in the town of Milton are not currently eligible under federal law for the Boston Logan Airport Sound Insulation program, the Authority shall formally request and immediately and vigorously pursue a waiver from the Federal Aviation Administration to allow for sound insulation for homes and school buildings in the town of Milton. Funds shall first be expended for the homes and school buildings most impacted by overflight traffic, accounting for both frequency and elevation.
