(attached) <br />� <br />Mayor Ashbach: ih'e have had a lot of discussion, nox� what does the Ceuneil <br />a�ant to do? <br />��Is.Kennedy: Public ltielfare Chairx�an - Our cor.iraittee considorad the matter <br />with the facts available and vre rejected the Co cart concass- <br />ion request of last fall, not only as a noise factor but <br />because of location wYiich was to be on Hibhv�ay 10 flcross fror.i <br />Iv?cu'-uires Lounge and next to Harkens Driving Range. Our Com- <br />mittse was told the 2 cycle engine used for racing is more <br />noisy tnan the 4 cycle concession machine; however, we did <br />feel the locatien cor.sidered here a�as more removed from tha <br />residents so they would ❑ot object. The tax was no drawing <br />card. It would bring in a form of fun and entertainment for <br />villagers, the noise was =ts only objzction. The Lesee must <br />ad'nere to the village rules. <br />P.�Iayor Asnbach: 41i11 they have muf£lers? <br />I�,r. h400re; Competitiop carts have no mufflera, some of the others do, <br />A:a;or Ashbach; 'Nould the requirement c� mufflers impair the use of the <br />track? <br />Mr. ivIoore: Yes it would.

He went on to state that he wae a business <br />raan, not an expert on tnis sport and if tiie track �ould cause <br />a lot of noise theSr would not be interested in it either. He <br />amphasized that they do not want to put something oser on the <br />residents. <br />He would be interosted in taking 12 carts, tne xnaximum in <br />competit��n, of the laa•gest and noisiest variety, have a test <br />run for noise and if t:�is proved too noisy thep let�s not <br />even consider it. <br />It will take w10,000.00 to construct this track and if within <br />a snort time the residents aan �t becaysP of tne noise,, the <br />oificers would rather knotiv this now thsn later. <br />• <br />� <br />Dr. Selchon: lNould Arden Hills police have to supervise this operation? <br />P!`.T. ir311er; W1e have talcen t:zis up �ith the arsenal personnel apd thay <br />have a secus�ity meaeure.
