CANTON — The Cherokee Board of Commissioners is addressing resident concerns of lighting and noise from the county aquatic center in Holly Springs.
Commissioners voted unanimously Tuesday to spend up to $40,000 to install new controls on the center’s dehumidification units to reduce noise from the machinery that has led to repeated complaints from nearby residents.
The board also approved seeking bids to plant about 90 Leyland cypress trees behind the center to eventually act as a barrier for sound and lighting, a step which is expected to cost about $40,000.
Both steps were the result of persistent complaints of nearby residents who have said their lives were disrupted by the aquatic center since it opened its doors in May 2013.
