To the editor: What do individuals do on curler coasters? They scream. Loudly!
One would assume that with all of the artistic genius and the numerous well-compensated executives at Common Studios Hollywood, somebody might need uttered “Houston, we’ve an issue” someday throughout the decade of this curler coaster being mentioned (“‘Quick & Livid’ coaster screams rattle quiet neighborhood: ‘Like somebody is getting murdered,”” July 24).
Has anybody thought concerning the results on property values in Toluca Lake if this downside can’t be solved? Declining values might present residents some property tax reduction, however at the price of the quiet and peaceable enjoyment of their properties. What a conundrum.
County officers didn’t require public hearings previous to granting Common approval to construct the coaster. I’m wondering what number of of those officers reside in Toluca Lake.

To the editor: I used to reside close to Common’s sound-monitoring stations. I used to be a member of the committee that negotiated the park plan after which objected to the sounds that began earlier than the curler coaster building started. Sounds simply from testing supplies have been heard inside properties and across the yards.
On the conferences with Common, we expressed issues concerning the extra sounds of screams. We tried, but it surely turns on the market was nothing we might do to stop them from going forward with a mission that we informed them would destroy our peace. Common was a enjoyable park already and didn’t want the curler coaster.
I didn’t promote my home two years in the past due to Common, however I’m glad I’m not there now.
