Purpose

Timeline

Before

Neighbours organised a counter-count on the access road over four weekdays.

During

The community meeting compiled the counts into a printed packet that was distributed at the work session.

After

The applicant withdrew before the commission vote, citing 'further study'.

What worked

  • Counting on consecutive school-mornings rather than a single Saturday.
  • Filing the resident counts in the official record at the work session.

What didn't

  • Estimating noise without measurement — it weakened the rest of the record.

What we'd do differently

  • Borrow a calibrated noise meter from the public library next time.
