<br />City Council <br />Study Session Summary <br />November 14, 2006 <br />Page 2 of 2 <br /> <br />Pete Clements, Louisville resident, spoke to Council about a recent situation in his neighborhood <br />where a loud, daily, early-morning disturbance could not be addressed by the Louisville Police <br />Department due to the lack of standards contained in the City's current noise ordinance. He <br />requested that City Council consider adopting an ordinance with stronger, enforceable standards. <br /> <br />Doris Clements stated that senior citizens are sensitive to loud, excessive noises and requested that <br />City Council consider adopting a stronger noise ordinance to make life more enjoyable for all <br />Louisville residents. <br /> <br />Doug Grinbergs, Louisville resident, agreed that the City's current noise ordinance could be <br />strengthened. He questioned the exceptions for Open Space and Golf Course Maintenance <br />equipment. <br /> <br />Mayor Sisk suggested that a representative of the Police Department attend a future meeting to <br />discuss the difficulty of enforcing the current noise ordinance. <br /> <br />Mayor Pro Tem Don Brown suggested that members of the Land Management Department and Golf <br />Course Management also provide information on the impact of limiting the hours they can operate <br />power equipment and machinery. <br /> <br />City Manager Items <br />Bill Simmons reviewed agenda items for the November 21, 2006 Regular City Council meeting. He <br />reminded City Council of the joint study session with the Planning Commission and Revitalization <br />Commission on November 20, 2006 in the Library meeting room to review the Highway 42 3-D <br />Modeling. <br /> <br />Heather Balser reported that the City submitted a Denver Regional Council of Governments <br />(DRCOG) Transportation Improvement Plan $100,000 grant application, which would require a <br />twenty-percent match from Louisville. The grant would allow the City to conduct a study to look further <br />at issues around the proposed commuter rail station along Highway 42, such as: access, grade <br />separation, parking, pedestrian and vehicular connections, etc. <br /> <br />Adjournment <br />The meeting was adjourned at 9:00 p.m. <br /> <br />Submitted November 14, 2006 <br />Belinda Dogan-Pishner <br />
