thrown over the fence into his backyard, and that Highland Drive has
tarried into a raceway since Softball World opened. It is Mr. Purdy's
opinion that whatever restrictions were placed on Softball World when
it was approved were not, taring enforced now, and ale did not know where
else to turn.. He explained that lie was, opposed to Mr. He.nsley's
request for fear that the problems he is experiencing would only
increase. He stated he was concerned about what kind of noise 'factors-
would be enforced if this request were approved, and what: kind of
noise barrier could be implemented.
