Pickleball court noise complaints

Summary

A resident who has lived behind the park for 25 years says the pickleball courts' sharp paddle noise invades his home from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m., even with windows closed. The new park-hours ordinance passed, but he wants enforcement, quieter equipment, an acoustic study and a township contact. The mayor offered a sit-down meeting.
