I have to wonder why anyone would build that large of a mansion almost directly beneath one of the loudest flight paths in the area? I'm sure the house is wonderful, but I just can't deal with the air traffic around here, and that's right near where they come in to the eastbound BWI approach path from the north.

So I can comment about this, as I had a neighbor run a generator in their yard for over a week after they failed to pay the electrical bill.

You are pretty much SOL during daylight hours, unfortunately. The only time the after hours effect comes into play is after 10 PM, and at that point the police have to measure the sound from a specific distance from your house with a calibrated instrument.

So unless they run them after 10PM, there's not much you can do from any authorities.

Yes the CA golf courses are a great way to get started at an affordable price. Fairway Hills also has a Green League in the spring summer and fall that’s a great way to get time on the course with others at the beginner skill level, I highly recommend it.

A more expensive option is GolfTec in Ellicott City and they are a good way to refine your game as they have ways to video your swing so that you can work on specific things.

Depending on what you're sensitive to, generally springtime is rough - the pollen gets very bad and I need to make sure that I start taking allergy meds in late February.

Summer through winter is fine for most.

Great. I've been here for 20.

I've seen a lot of bad road behavior here in Columbia in this "post pandemic" world. People drive the way they want without consequence, and I've seen a lot of egregious driving in broad daylight, so something like this late at night would not surprise me, given how Columbia is today.

And given OP's engagement in the thread, it would seem to indicate that they want productive feedback. Which your comment absolutely was not.

The noise ordinance is only for certain situations and mostly at night.

I had a bad neighbor running an extremely loud generator less than thirty feet from my bedroom and the police couldn't do anything unless it was a)after 10 PM, I think, and at a certain decibel level measured by the police's calibrated equipment.

I feel for you. Columbia can be a freaking noisy place.

Oh they are finally moving forward with this! That’s what the intention of the space was for when they opened this Wegmans years ago, but they’ve just been using it mainly for storage since. Looking forward to the new place.
