You surely noticed that your servants at the School Board chopped down most of the trees at Thirteen Acres and built a school so that the decreasing number of students in the Richmond system will have a nice place to go. The naked backside of the new building faces Monticello. That's the side where they put the air conditioning unit, which sounds like an old truck taking a long grade, and a generator, which sounds like an old truck with no muffler taking the same grade. Not only does this side of the building sound like a factory and look like a prison, they lit it like a prison, with halogen lights that glare out into the neighborhood.
See Sudie Pasco's petition and her email about this affront. As of Dec. 1, 2000, they had installed a timer to turn the lights off at 10:00 p.m. After that, a letter to our School Board member may have produced some results.
On May 30, 2001, Sudie reported that the noise abatement was starting to work.
