He then introduced as Exhibit 2 five sets of photos, plus memos, letters, plat, and hearing excerpts to prove that R&R Enterprises falsely stated under oath that they serve only Village Green with the equipment stored on this property, and finally submitted as Exhibit 3 sets of pictures showing the distances from his home to the compound and the buffering lugustrum hedge, which does not keep out the noise, conditions of the compound itself, and debris being taken to the perc pond area. All of these Exhibits are on file in the Office of the Clerk. Mr. Kahn made a closing statement, summarizing the false statements made; the disregarding of tenants' rights; the violations of law; the continuing nuisance of loud and often obscene language; and he emphasized that changing the Zoning Code would simply condone the problem. Mr. Kahn stated that he has $80,000 invested in his home and pleaded with the Board to deny the request for a zoning change.

Mr. Kahn stated that they do have noise there in the mornings when they come to work, as well as at noon and in the evenings when they leave, and they also repair equipment in the compound when the people are working elsewhere. Commissioner Wodtke inquired if these are the people who maintain the lawn at Village Green and the -ponds, lakes and recreation areas, and Mr. Kahn confirmed that they are. 42 0
