Item 9A - TCC Presentation SPIN Town Hall Forum (5)Timarron Country is requesting a variance to the Nuisance permanent business • Timarron Country Club opened in 1994 and offers manicured and maintained open space to adjacent properties. • Homes were first sold and occupied on portions of Timarron beginning in 1995. Course maintenance has operated at 6:00 a.m. for 25 yea rs. • Timarron has never received a citation for violating the Noise Ordinance which indicates decades of general acceptance of normal course preparation. Preparing the golf course is a time-consuming fluid operation covering over 150 acres. Mowing equipment is consistently moving away from adjacent properties minimizing the sound effect. Full course mowing only occurs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Saturday and Sunday— only the greens are mowed, each one taking approximately 15 minutes. Only 4 holes are mowed during the first hour of the day Continuing the 25 -year standard of beginning course maintenance at 6:00 a.m. allows employees to work and Members to play during the coolest part of the day, diminishing sun exposure and potentially dangerous heat related incidents. Course maintenance jobs do not provide a 40 -hour work week as mowing the entire course takes approximately 5 hours. Most of these employees work 2nd jobs and need to continue to do so in order to provide for their families. Beginning work later than 6:00 a.m. puts some of our employee's 2nd jobs in jeopardy.
