Mayor Rockvam discussed the satisfactory results from Item #14E —Lord Fletcher's Live Music
Sound Test Report. He questioned what is involved in the testing process.
City Administrator Tolsma stated that Lord Fletcher's is not given advance notice of the date and
time of the testing. An outside consultant, Kimley-Horn and Associates, is used to ensure fairness
and accuracy with the testing based on State standards. The engineers test four nearby locations (3
in Orono and 1 in Spring Park) and are on-site to monitor noise levels. They also make notes
regarding spikes in noise caused by passing motorcycles or loud music from boats on the lake to
ensure that the noise levels included in the report are indeed for the sound that is coming from and
can be controlled by Lord Fletcher's. The report shows that Lord Fletcher's was within allowable
noise level limits during this year's testing.
Mayor Rockvam encouraged residents who have concerns about noise levels to attend the Lord
Fletcher's Cardigan Club meetings to voice any issues.
