Maybe it was the band that played the "... far-out psychedelic headbanger 100 Db music."

A Costco is coming? OMG so many will be happy.

I live a few blocks away and I never hear the music at all. Sometimes I wonder if it is even open. The residents that live near there shouldn't have control over the entertainment music levels.

The only person who truly has "control over the entertainment music levels" is the Developer, and we all have the right to complain to him about issues that concern us.

Only the Developer knew what they had planned and I doubt they told the new homeowners.

There was a time when the amenities were built before the houses

Used to be when the wind was blowing the right direction I could hear waves of live band music coming from Sawgrass, and I'm down in Chitty.

Why do you think they never use all those little speakers on the posts around the audience? It seems like all the sound comes from the stage.

I live next to Sawgrass and never hear the noise at night time. Im in my house is usually closed up with the AC on, but I don’t hear a thing.
It also reminds me of people buying a house next to the turnpike, and then complaining about the turnpike.

Those that bought there knew Sawgrass was being built there. There was no surprise and it's quite sad that they are now complaining about it.

Sound carries....I remember years ago that a resident across from Mallory CC complained about their live music. Got to be an every night caller to the CC. Eventually he sold the house and moved. We live off from Odell by the family pool and Odell Rec Center. Every so often we can hear the music (ever so faintly though) from LSL, or so I think. Have to have the windows open though. I always wonder about those who complain.....is it just one or two or the whole neighborhood??!! I'm not familiar with Sawgrass' issue however.....

KIDDING, but you know that’s coming.

I have put together many sound systems. The system at Sawgrass works great. But does not belong at that venue, it belongs at Edna's. You need a system of speakers that the sound drops off after a distance. The speakers at Sawgrass should be surrounding the Venue where people are sitting.

Example you can put 8 Bose columns surrounding the sitting area at a 45 degree angle hanging in a horizontal instead of vertical plane with about 4 subwoofers spaced at ground level also surrounding the area. Lower the volume on the entire system and just surround the space with sound instead of blasting from the stage to fill the sitting area with sound from one direction the front of the stage, the result is what they have - the sound going past the venues property. The sound system they installed does not work for this venue and they used speakers that are not designed for that area. The hardest part is getting the sound people to only use the sound needed to fill the area. Not red-line the sound so it is unbearable like at concerts. The sound should be as close to wearing a pair of earphones in the area where people sit and drop off at or as close to property edge. Not a system that blasts into the neighborhoods. Sounds difficult - maybe for the people that put these systems together but a sound engineer could make that place sound great and not have all the neighbor complaints. I think that system belongs at Edna's it is way to small for Sawgrass. The design did not work. So don't blame anyone I am sure they did their best. But this needs a complete redo and a complete training of anyone that touches that system so the neighbors don't complain as much. Remember there will always be people that complain, but fewer complaints are needed.
