We would like to discuss the excess noise from the Alga Norte Park. As you know, the park opened in January 2014. Since then, the noise from the skate park has been present nearly every minute between SAM and 10PM. The park is located at the bottom of a natural bowl that transmits sound to all the homes that line Alicante to the east. Many of the homeowners find the skate park noise so offensive that they are unable to enjoy a peaceful moment in their backyards or even indoors, particularly if a door or window is open. Barking from the dog park and loud music and announcements from the pool also disturb many homeowners. Many ofthe homeowners called and e-mailed Sue Spickard and Christ Hazeltine soon after the park opened to voice their concerns. We asked the Parks and Recreation Department to begin steps to mitigate the noise. Potential ways to accomplish this would be installation of walls similar to those used adjoining freeways, adding sound absorbing canopies similar in shape to those already in place in the park, and landscaping surrounding the skate park and dog park. About 20 homeowners met with Mr. Hazeltine at the La Costa Greens Presidio on April 14, 2014. At that meeting, some neighbors suggested closing the skate park at 8 PM as a first step in reducing the disturbance. Mr. Hazeltine acknowledged that he had visited one backyard on one occasion and noted the noise from the skate park. He indicated he understood our concerns, but stated he needed to gather more data in order to determine if any action was warranted. He promised an update within one week. He called Tom Rudolph, the neighbor who organized the meeting, and again stated that no decision was made and more data needed to be collected. He was not prepared to give a time frame for providing more information. He mentioned that he had received the same noise complaints from the homeowners who live in Bressi Ranch. Mr. Hazeltine stated that the City and the Parks Department want the park to be a good neighbor. A good neighbor does not host a 14 hour-long noisy party every day ofthe week. If a considerate neighbor has a party, he/she makes sure the music and the conversations are not too loud. We request that you instruct the Parks and Recreation Department to initiate steps to mitigate the noise from the Alga Norte Park. Please feel free to call us at 760-431-6755 or e-mail at kconradmd(5)earthlink.net to let us know if there is time for us to present to the Council.

I am writing to inform you that I will be making a presentation at the June 3, 2014, meeting of the Carlsbad City Council. The meeting begins at 6PM and will be held at 1200 Carlsbad Village Drive. I will be preparing a powerpoint presentation which will include clips that I recorded on my l-phone from my back yard and graphs detailing decibel readings I have made. Unfortunately I will not be able to forward the presentation to you since the file size will be too large. I was informed by the City Manager that my presentation will be toward the end of the meeting, and there will be at least 30 minutes of Council business prior to my presentation. I am asking that any one who can attend this meeting let me know by responding to this e-mail (please include your full name and address). I believe that a large delegation from the neighborhood will impress the Council with the determination of the neighbors and the importance of the issue to them. JoAnne and I attended the Council Meeting on 06-May-14 to understand the procedures that the City follows. If you wish to speak after my presentation, you need to fill out a "Speaker Card" which is at the entrance to the hall and deposit it in a clear tray marked Speaker Slips which is located on the wall adjacent to the Deputy City Clerk. You will be allowed up to five minutes if you choose to speak. I would like any one who agrees with the position I will be presenting (summarized in the attached letter) to reply to this e-mall with your full name and address. I will present the list of those in agreement to the council. If any one has additional points for me to add to the discussion, or any video clips you would like me to add, please let me know. JoAnne and I will be distributing flyers about this meeting to neighbors in Bressi Ranch asking for their support by attending the meeting or adding their names to the list of those who want change.

Please consider adding the point regarding the unsafe condition of skaters coming down Alicante, especially at dusk and after dark. This remains a liability whteh will highly likely lead to injury or death. We witness kids spinning in the middle of the street and crossing In front of cars every weekend. It is willful negligence now that we have apprised the Parks and City Council. The death of a teenager will be a direct result of the City not limiting the skate park hours to daylight. A solution would be to deny the attractive nuisance of the skatepark to no later than 6PM or dusk, whichever is sooner Sincerely, Dan Palmer 6599 Halite Place Garlsbad, CA 92009 Sent from my iPhone From Subject Date To Cc Fred IMajor fred.major@icloud.com Re: Alga Norte Park noise to be discussed at Carlsbad City Council meeting June 3 May 23, 2014 at 8:35 PM Kenneth Conrad kconradmd@earthlink.net slvr5r@gmaii.com, Tom Rudolph tomrnatca@hotmail com, hwithers@outiook.com, aealessandra@roadrunner.com, jcareylee9294@gmaii.com, Phyllis Levin phyiiis@purityproducts.com, ccbejar@hotmail.com, diinguadoca@gmail.com, jon@barefootcoffee.com, danpalmer210@sbcglobal.net, mortgoodman@gmail.com, johnlcg@gmaii.com, maiicekang@hotmail.com, mowerba@gmail.com, ashvarts11@gmaii.com, carlenemcfali@gmail.com, Debbie Chavez cincy4c@aol.com, mel@purityproducts.co,m, deanadigioia@att.net, ronnieshaw@gmail.com, dreawiiiiams@hotmail.com, ebosze@gmail.com, kilbuck43@gmail.com, connie9888@gmail.com, christn.lewis@me.com, rbej99@yahoo.com, Lynnette Miyamoto kentlynn@gmail.com, sslsnpiax@sbcgiobal.net, rroper@newmatic.net, elhamzio@vahoo.com Fred and Sandy Major will be attending. 6671 Halite Place From Subject Date To Cc Sherri Plaxco sslsnplax@sbcglobai.net Re: Alga Norte Park noise to be discussed at Carlsbad City Council meeting June 3 May 23, 2014 at 9:09 PM Fred Major fred.major@icioud.com Kenneth Conrad kconradmd@earthlink.net, slvr5r@gmaii.com, Tom Rudolph tomrnatca@hotmail.com, hwithers@outlook.com, aeaiessandra@roadrunner.com, jcareylee9294@gmaii.com, Phyllis Levin phyllis@purityproducts.com, ccbejar@hotmail.com, dlinguadoca@gmail.com, jon@barefootcoffee.com, danpaimer210@sbcgiobai.net, mortgoodman@gmaii.com, iohnlcg@gmail.com, malicekang@hotmail.com, mowerba@gmail.com, ashvarts11@gmail.com, carienemcfail@gmail.com, Debbie Chavez cincy4c@aoi.com, mel@purityproducts.com, deanadigioia@att.net, ronnieshaw@gmail.com, dreawiiiiams@hotmail.com, ebosze@gmail.com, kilbuck43@gmaii.com, connie9888@gmail.com, christn.lewis@me com, rbej99@yahoo.com, Lynnette Miyamoto kentlynn@gmaii.com, rroper@newmatic.net, elhamzio@yahoo.com Shawn and Sherri Plaxco will be there!

I complained to the contractor and the City about the dust they had created and how it affected my windows. The contractor (Kitchell) promised to have our windows washed. Needless to say I did not hear from them again. I mentioned this to Chris Hazeltine and he followed up on it. Last week Kitchell agreed to wash our windows. I suggest you contact Wendy Cohen (Regional VP for Kitchell) at wcohen(S)kitchell.com or call 619-209-6010. I then contacted Superior Windows (858-717-4113) and they agreed to wash my windows inside and out, clean the screens and window tracts for $225.1 passed this info on to Wendy and she said that Kitchell will pay them directly.

We certainly echo our neighbor's concerns about the park hours for the skate and dog parks. We will unfortunately not be able to attend the meeting on June 3rd. We hope the council meeting goes well and the members understand the community's concerns and will begin to address them. From our view here at 6635 Halite, I see at least that the city is finally adding a fence around the park to keep the kids from climbing up the rocks and going into the hills behind the park. At the last meeting with the Parks and Rec head, he said they were looking at a fence for the skate park. We support this idea (also be better at separating the kids section of the park from the skate park), and that at 8 pm everyone should be asked to leave and like with pool, lock the gates for the evening. There is another Carlsbad skate park near the safety center that is lit until 10 pm and we do not see why the skaters cannot enjoy this park during the evening hours, bringing much reduced noise to Halite. You have our permission to add our names to the letter voicing the communities concerns about the park. We support yours and the community's efforts in this matter to make the park better for all. Thank you.

Conrad, MD • Issues to be discussed: - Noise and lighting from the skate park - Traffic safety associated with the park - Noise from the dog park - Noise and lighting from the aquatic center - Noise and lighting from the baseball fields Alga Norte Skate Park Noise is generated from hitting the nose and tail ofthe skateboard on the ground or from sliding and grinding the skateboard trucks across coping and ledges. Skateboarders often pop skateboards into the air to execute maneuvers - creating a sound similar to that of a baseball bat hitting a ball This noise, along with cheering and screaming, is present constantly from SAM to 10PM, and intrudes on outdoor conversations and entertaining and prevents concentrating When windows or doors are open, the noise interferes with reading, sleeping, conversations, and TV Building the park at the bottom of a natural bowl enables sounds to travel very efficiently up the siope to the east, aided by prevailing winds 6/3/14 Noise Levels At Residences on Halite Place When Skaters are Present • Peak noise levels usually exceed 60 dB* • Peak noise levels frequently exceed 75 dB** • Peak noise levels occasionally exceed 90 dB* • Average noise levels often exceed 60 dB • Average noise levels frequently exceed 70 dB • Average noise levels occasionally exceed 80 dB •'A normal conversation generates sound pressure of 60 dB ** An alarm clock generates sound pressure of 75 dB • Power tools and food blenders generate sound pressure of 90 dB Each 10 dB increase represents a ten-fold increase in sound pressure From City of Carlsbad Noise Guidelines Manual September 1995 TYPICAl. SOUND LEVELS IN dBA j VEgy QUIET THaiESIiOUl OF NOKMAI. HKASING 6/3/14 Noise Guideline.'. Mamial CITY OF CARL,SBAD Harmful Effects of Noia^ Noise in the Community Noise Impact Range (40 dBA to 8B dBA) can cause temporary physiological and/or psychological effects. If the noise/response cycle is repeated at a sufficiently close interval and continues over time, then the noise may contribute to and aggravate certain disorders such as headache, fatigue, digestive upsets, circulatory or equilibrium problems, etc. Noise is considered a "stressor" and may have serious implications in stress-related ailments. Two areas of significant concern with respect to effects ot community noise on people are the interference with speech communication, which includes not only person-to-person but telephone, radio, and television communication, and the interruption of sleep. Figure III-4 illustrates how speech and communication can be impacted by noise. Excessive background noises can reduce the amount and quality of verbal exchange and thereby impact education, family lifestyles, occupational efficiency and the quality of recreation and leisure time. Speech interference begins to occur at about 40 to 45 decibels and becomes significant at about 60 decibels. Background noise levels affect performance and learning processes through distraction, reduced accuracy, increased fatigue, annoyance and irritability, and the inability to concentrate. Several factors determine whether or not a particular noise event will interfere with or prevent sleep. These factors inolude the noise level and characteristics, the stage of sleep, the individual's age, motivation to waken, and so forth. Ill or elderly people are particularly susceptible to noise induced sleep interference. uaLfiumsBnii 6/3/14 6/3/14 6/3/14 6619 Halite Place Decibel Readings Before Skate Park Opening IVlay 24 5:40 AM Mid-Afternoon Five Skaters Friday IVlay 231 PM - Five Skaters 100 90 "Average "Peak !
