Attorney Brandenburg stated that actually what it amounts to <br />is an accommodation between neighbors; we do not have a <br />noise ordinance now. The only right the hospital would have <br />would be to come to them as good neighbors and ask for their <br />cooperation. <br />Reverend Charles noted that they do have plans to <br />expand their church building. <br />Attorney Brandenburg further explained that when you <br />use your property and some aspect of that property invades <br />another's property, you cannot expect that individual to <br />forever keep the nature of that property just so for your <br />benefit; he may want to use it for his own benefit, and the <br />neighbors will have to work with it unless there is an <br />ordinance controlling. There may be a noise ordinance in <br />the future. <br />Reverend Charles felt the new owners must consider what <br />is around them, and their church has been there for years. <br />Commissioner Bird believed we are putting them on <br />notice today about the situation that exists, and it is a <br />"buyer beware" situation. <br />Commissioner Bowman pointed out that most hospitals are <br />well insulated and air conditioned and not likely to open a <br />window. <br />Reverend Charles continued to stress that they have a <br />right to their religious freedom even though some people may <br />term their practices "barbaric" and their services can get <br />LOUD! He stated that the entire congregation opposes the <br />proposed rezoning. <br />The Chairman asked if anyone else wished to be heard. <br />Robert "Flip" Lloyd, Engineer, appeared representing <br />the Russells. He stated that they can appreciate the <br />Reverend's concerns, but wished to note that the Russells <br />are far from being newcomers to this county, and they do <br />have a right to the use of their property. <br />53 <br />BOOK 59 `�,k ,,C. 46 1 <br />
