Where is the Action?

I am absolutely livid as I write this. I am not going to go into details of the meeting until I have calmed down. But I want it known that it is 11:30pm, we had our meeting and the Db reading on my porch, RIGHT NOW is 70!

I really wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt. This sector of the Historic Riverside Community has compromised our lives in the past month and tonight if just one “simple solution” could have gone into effect, it would have been a show of good corporate citizenship.

But nothing was implemented that would give us immediate relief-NOTHING
There was even a solution that was shared with the group, that would provide immediate relief to several of the highly affected areas-placing empty Maola trailers in the vacant lot adjacent to the loading docks creating a make-shift sound barrier.

In fact, they did a test this afternoon and found that it did indeed make a huge difference on the noise.

But, here we sit feeling physically ill, wide awake with the relentless noise, and NO ONE THOUGHT THE SITUATION WAS URGENT ENOUGH TO CREATE THIS BARRIER TONIGHT — I WANT TO KNOW WHY!!!

In fact, in the meeting tonight they were asked when they would pull the trailers up, would it be tonight, would it be 24 hours or 48 hours.

Sadly, for everyone involved, the answer we got was…we aren’t sure when we can do that.
