This is So Common
Building something "out in the weeds"and then having people build up around you, then getting complaints about what you're doing. It happened to three racetracks in the Denver area that I know of. One is now a private warehouse facility; the other now has a tree growing out of its grandstand. The third (which STILL has no near neighbors) is just closed, and destroyed. Its nearest neighbor is Denver International Airport, which was also "out in the weeds" when it was built (as was its predecessor, Stapleton Airport, now closed). People built up around them and started whining about "noise." DIA (Denver International Airport) has paid millions of dollars to the City of Aurora for "anti-noise violations" and will probably one day succumb to the whining of those neighbors, as did the others. I wondered why they allowed Denver to "annex" so much of their property for DIA. I think people who build next to an airport or a race track, or something else where something happens they don't like ought to be forever STOPPED from complaining. The same is true of this Utah farmer who built a "Redneck Stonehedge" out of derelict cars, just to show his neighbors he could do what he wanted on his own property. (Fox News)
