generated from within. This could be done by prohibiting openings on the North or <br />West sides of the structure and, therefore. activity would be focused away from the <br />Northern residences." <br />The staff report dearly gives insight into the intent of the commissioners. That is, that any noise was <br />to be contained within the structure and not create a noise nuisance by using the backyard, and that <br />activity would be focused away from the Northern residences. Having 100 people in the backyard, at <br />a dba greater than 70, violates this. <br />Please respond with your feedback. <br />1977 design review prohibits use of the backyard <br />The 1977 Design Review states, <br />"The entrance to the building would be on the south side. There would be no windows <br />in the other three elevations and the only other opening would be to emergency exits <br />(one on the east side and the other on the north side). Because the building would be <br />used for Lodge rituals, windows are not desired. Placing the entrance on the south side <br />of the building concentrates outdoor activities as far as possible from the bordering <br />residences. This is In conformance with the requirements of the conditional use permit <br />approval." <br />The design review clearly states to concentrate outdoor activity as far as possible from bordering <br />residences. Having 100 people on the other side of our fence violates concentrating "outdoor <br />activities as far as possible from the bordering residences." <br />Please also note that the sentence "This is in conformance with the requirements of the conditional <br />use permit approval" clearly communicates that "concentrating outdoor activities as far as possible <br />from bordering residences" is in compliance with the CUP. Therefore, 100 people in the backyard, <br />on the other side of our fence line, violate the CUP. <br />Please respond with your feedback. <br />51 Therefore, when one looks at all of the above 1977 documents in combination, a consistent pattern <br />emerges where the 1977 Planning Commission is protecting the residences from noise generated at <br />the Masons' property: <br />• CUP Condition #l: "...activities were to be focused on the south..."
