Hi Todd,
You should be receiving a letter in the next few days regarding the reported excessive noise disturbance in your area
during the early morning. Please let me know if the noise disturbance continues.
Thanks for your help,
Ken

Hi Todd,
I spoke with a representative at Pride Disposal.The times and duration of activity and noise you indicated do not match
up with their reported pick up times or duration of pick up (approximately one minute) at that location. If you could be
more specific about who is causing the noise, I can take appropriate action. In the meantime, I will pass your complaint
along to Tigard PD. Hopefully they will be able to help us determine who is causing the disturbance. If you have any
questions,feel free to call me directly at 503-718-2581.
Thank you for your patience and assistance,
Ken

Hello again,
I'm writing to complain about the excessive nuisance NOISE emanating from behind the Tigard Town Square shopping
center every Sunday and Thursday nights between around 3:50 AM and 4:30 AM. And sometimes again between 6:30
AM and 7 AM on Mondays.
This NOISE jolts our entire family awake, and our home is 1/4 mile away. The noise is trash collection activity including
the SLAMMING,SCRAPING and SCREECHING of several heavy metal dumpsters and hydraulic trash compactors.This
1
cacophony goes on for up to 20 minutes at a time, and is punctuated by the most annoying BEEP-BEEP-BEEPS of the
trash truck backing up and REVVING its engine. Every night's sleep is ruined when this happens.
I have called Washington County Sheriff, Tigard Police and submitted complaints about this nuisance several times now. I
believe the culprit is either Pride Recycling or Waste Management.And as discussed before,there are no exceptions on
the books for trash collectors.
I would like the City of Tigard to enforce its nuisance noise ordinance by posting a police officer at this location next
Sunday night and citing the company responsible. And then I would like to be informed that such action was taken,
please.
It is absolutely unacceptable for this to continue happening twice a week before 7 AM so close to a residential area.
Thanks,
Todd Ourts
