Chris,<br> <br> If you heat the ice to 33 degrees or higher it will no longer be to loud for the neighbors. It would be cheaper too. <br> <br> _DJA<br><br><b><i>Chris Storhok <cstorhok@co.fairbanks.ak.us></i></b> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 11 (filtered medium)"> <!--[if !mso]> <style> v\:* {behavior:url(#default#VML);} o\:* {behavior:url(#default#VML);} w\:* {behavior:url(#default#VML);} .shape {behavior:url(#default#VML);} </style> <![endif]--><o:SmartTagType namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" name="Street"> <o:SmartTagType namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" name="PlaceName"> <o:SmartTagType namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" name="PlaceType"> <o:SmartTagType

w:st="on">Commissioners</st1:PlaceName></st1:place> are trying to work out a final plan. At this point the plan is to enclose the current facility with a metal soundproof building. The footprint will be big enough to support a full size rink and support facilities; however they will continue to use the current rink. The hope is that with the soundproof building they will be able to extend operating hours back to the original length and hopefully make enough money to justify expansion to a full size rink. <o:p></o:p></span></font></div> <div class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">I have not heard if Tidymans is back into play or if there are other sites.<o:p></o:p></span></font></div> <div class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;"><o:p> </o:p></span></font></div>
<div class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">As for the horse arena, it is used in the summer but as to the extent of its use I no longer know how often.<o:p></o:p></span></font></div> <div class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;"><o:p> </o:p></span></font></div> <div class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">Also, I must make a public apology
.until I was in town last month for Phils funeral I never realized exactly how loud that rink is. I had a chance to walk around the outside of the facility and finally figured out why the neighbors were complaining so much. That place is loud. <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Fairbanks</st1:place></st1:City> has 5 indoor enclosed
rinks that produce no sound outside of the walls of each structure. We have 17 outside rinks without covers that do produce noise but it dissipates within just a few feet and bothers no one. So with my current experience of rinks in <st1:City w:st="on">Fairbanks</st1:City> and my past connection to the <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Moscow</st1:City></st1:place> rink I went visited the facility and discovered how wrong I was about the noise from that rink. <o:p></o:p></span></font></div> <div class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;"><o:p> </o:p></span></font></div> <div class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">So to the neighbors who I argued with in public hearings: I was wrong. You are right. The <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Moscow</st1:place></st1:City> rink has a design problem that really amplifies the heck out of activities inside and frankly is a nuisance. <o:p></o:p></span></font></div> <div class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;"><o:p> </o:p></span></font></div> <div class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">Please support the county commissioners and Rotarys effort to fully enclose the current rink in a sound proof building. That effort will be a win-win for everyone involved much like the compromise for design of the ball fields off of <st1:Street w:st="on"><st1:address w:st="on">Palouse River Drive</st1:address></st1:Street>.<o:p></o:p></span></font></div> <div class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color:
