Praised the AI data center ban but asked why the Council hasn't updated pickleball noise ordinances despite approving new courts, and submitted a referenced research handout.

Argued the club parcel's EIR misidentifies the nearest noise receptor and that, applying the city's 50 dB noise limit and 150-foot setback, a pickleball court could only fit in a small triangle of the parcel — and would still risk code violations.

Urged the Council to treat pickleball noise as a public health issue and adopt distance-based zoning tiers for courts, handing out National Task Force on Pickleball research.
