Business ordered to
fix noise problern
. Northern Sunny~rale
condominium residE~nts
who have complained at
length about a constant
hum from a neighboring
business have been ]ieard.
The Sunnyvale P).an-
ning Commission, voting
6-1 on Monday, responded
by granting Aixtron Inc.
a variance from the city's
noise ordinance, but
requiring the company to
install acoustical blankets,
barriers and silencers on a
chiller and two scrubbers
on its roof. The macriines
operate 24 hours a d~iy,
seven days a week, and
are necessary for clean
rooms that the company
needs to maintain. Tl~e
company makes semicon-
ductor manufacturin;;
machinery.
The new equipment is
expected to cost $69,'?00.
Residents described i:he
noise in extreme terms,
complaining of sleep de-
privation and psychologi-
calimpacts.
There has been on,go-
ing tension in the Morse
Park Neighborhood
Association area, which is
bounded roughly by Fair
Oaks Avenue, Highway
lOl and Route 237. The
city designated much of
the neighborhood as an .
industrial to residential
zone, which makes it f~asy
to rezone and redevelop
properties so the city r_an
get more housing:
Residents said the city
has failed to address tine
resulting quality of life
issues.
