Councilman Marks questioned the anti-noise machine use.
He does not see any difference in the noise level in the
Village, only that there is more of it. The Village
Manager advised that the one machine is shared by Public
Services and Public Safety. Public Safety does not keep
the unit as a rule, they only have it when the need is
made known. He advised that another unit is being
requested in next year's budget. Councilman Marks
expressed a desire to have the present machine made
available to Public Safety in the very near future to
help with this problem.
