1020 E Maxwell LN

Case Date:
8/17/2020

The construction at 1020 East Maxwell Lane is very disruptive. There is a lot of noise from early morning through the afternoon. Trucks beeping, sawing... Since I am working from home, the noise really interferes with my being able to work effectively. There are so many trucks parked along Manor Road that people have difficulty driving down Manor. The large dumpster they have on Maxwell Lane, blocks the view and makes turning onto Maxwell rather dangerous. More trucks parked on Maxwell add to this challenge. This construction has been going on a long time.

Noise from the Carlisle factory has hit an all-time point of frustration. This nuisance is loud and obnoxious with fans running 24/7. Last night there was a clear, high-pitched whine at ~1376 Hz. It was so loud and clear I could detect it with my musical tuner at the pitch F6. My neighbors are miserable and Carlisle seems oblivious to the issue.

City workers replaced the old electricity pole with a new one on 2/25/22. Now, some tree branches interact with the wires especially on both of the taped connections due to the new pole is much taller than the old one. It's potentially dangerous. Request to get that affected branch removed.

This is day 6 of the illegal frat flying a flag with their symbol on it. In a note from City Planning, we were told that their flag with "name and symbol" of the frat had to be taken down or they would accrue fines beginning with $2500 if not taken down by Oct. 10, 2017. The flag with their Greek letters was not taken down until late Friday afternoon, but the flag with their symbol (Skull and crossbones) is still flying. The frat is also known as "THe Skulls" "Skulls and Bones" or the "skullhouse" (see Wikipedia article on this fraternity, especially nicknames) and the Skull and crossbones is depicted on their badge and coat of arms (ibid). In the NOV issued by the City, the landlord and frat members were told that "no fraternity signage" would be allowed. Hence I am asking that fines accrue from day 1 of the date 10/10/2017 until the second flag comes down, which as of this evening is still flying. The photo attached here is from late this afternoon. I have photos documenting each day (seom of which I have already sent in as Ureports). We were informed that fines were to start this past Friday (Oct. 13), and I wish to formally object, inthat the landlord and fraternity members have knowingly ignored the city NOV date. The first flag came down ONLY when one of the City Planners addressed a note directly to the landlord ("dear Jeff" -- wholly inappropriate) stating that the fines would begin that day. As soon as he mentioned that the fines would start, the landlord called the frat and had them take down only one flag (the one with the Greek letters for the frat, but not the Skull and Crossbones) as well as warning them not to hold the specifically forbidden frat event (a concert for their philanthropy). THe party was moved to avoid the hefty fine this would have accrued, priving that the only way the City (and we the neighbors) will get any relief from the landlord and frat memebrs ignoring the City's NOV is to enforce the fines listed in the NOV. It is unfair to the City's taxpayers, myself and my neighbors included, to allow the hard work that we performed to document all these illegal activities to be shunted aside so that "dear Jeff" doesn't have to pay the appropriate fines he has earned. It has taken two months for this process to get to the point of finally being able to be enforced, and I want to see full enforcement effected so that we don't have to continue going through this. Only when hefty fines accrue will the landlord and frat members take this NOV seriously. By planning to have their frat event on the premises Sat. AFTER being informed of the NOV 9/7/2017, it is clear that only fines will make them cease. Pleasae consider this a serious and heartfelt request to alter the fine date so that people respect your regulations, as most of us do. Thank you.
