Letter to the Editor: Gravel Pit Concerns ‘Very Real’, Perhaps ‘Emblematic of Culture of Old Lyme?

To the Editor:

Thank you, Mr Caron [regarding you letter dated May 22, published on LymeLine.com.] These concerns [re the gravel pit along the Three-Mile River located at 308-1 Mile Creek Rd. in Old Lyme] are very real, and the neighbors of this property are suffering economic, environmental and disturbances to the peace on our properties.

The 1984 (!) noise ordinance in Old Lyme is virtually useless and toothless.

The owner of the property has demonstrated disrespect and lack of civility toward their neighbors.

Is this emblematic of the culture of Old Lyme?

Sincerely,

Betsy Groth,
Old Lyme.
