The results are listed in the table below. The nearest residential building appears to be approximately 150' from the Town and Country property line. Operations that would involve eq uipment being at one location for an extended period of time would be mowing the greens (10-12 minutes per green) and raking the sand traps (5-6 minutes ). Mowing of fairways occurs on Monday, Wednesday and Fridays. Mowing of greens and raking traps is a daily operation. Below are the recorded sound level ranges and predicted sound level ranges at 50' , 100' and 200' from the three mowers most 1 ikely to be used between 6 a.m. and 7 a.m. DISTANCE FROM SOUNO SOURCE MOWER 50' 100' 200' Actual �undlevel �timated SoundleveT Jacobsen Greens Mower 65-73 dBA 59-67 dBA 53-61 dBA Touer Sand Pro 59-65 dBA 53-59 dBA 47-53 dBA Ransomes Fairway mower 66-68 dBA 60-62 dBA 54-56 dBA Since actual �_10 measurenents are not avai labl e, I can only estimate what they would be at the pr operty line. From the information I received the mowing of the greens appears to be the most likely situation that would violate the City noise ordinance. Using the d6 levels for the Jacobsen greens mower at 100 feet and the time to cut a green of 10-12 minutes , an L10 of 55 dBA for the 6 a.m, to 7 a.m, time period could be exceeded. RECOMMENDED RESTRICTIONS Operations should be limited to playing surfaces and the following equipment: Utility Vehicles, Greens wers, Fairw�vMo ers and Motorized Sand Trap Rakes between the hours of 6: 0 a.m. and 7:00 a.m. ��r ee� M�;�.�(��- Fa-�✓w �*�'�'�" _�� " � C,��..�o_�- t��tl � �°-� `n� ��°'{�'� Ih�-m T"� �,� „..� � � PK/drm �� b f� M -��4M �n � o� �`�.c ��0 % b `� �` � __ ,, ___� �,. ,,, t. � , 3 ��, \'�� f, � ; '� � .
