Judge Delays Code Enforcement Appeals Hearing for Corvette Museum’s Motorsports Park

Ironically enough, could the dispute over the noise being generated by the National Corvette Museum Motorsports Park be settled quietly behind the scenes?

Corvette enthusiasts certainly hope so.

Another sign that the parties involved are trying to reach an amicable agreement zoomed into town Tuesday.

That’s when Warren District Judge John Brown, who was slated to hear an appeal by the NCM Foundation on Tuesday morning concerning the $100 a day fine issued by the Warren County Code Enforcement Board, delayed the hearing until 9 a.m. on Dec. 15.

According to an attorney for the code enforcement board, the Museum, Clark Circle residents, and the City-County Planning Commission of Warren County are trying to negotiate a settlement of the dispute that has dragged on for more than a year. More than 70 homes are in Clark Circle near the park, and residents there have complained for months about noise from vehicles on the track.

“There have been discussions arising out of the lawsuit in circuit court,” code enforcement board and City-County Planning Commission attorney Frank “Hamp” Moore told The Bowling Green Daily News this week.

Judge Brown’s delay came on the heels of another decision on Monday by Warren Circuit Judge John Grise to delay his ruling until at least Nov. 23 on a request by Residents Against Motorsports Track Noise, residents Janet Jent and Sara Buckley, and the City-County Planning Commission for a temporary injunction to shut down the park – after all parties involved asked him for the delay.

We’re sure all parties would be more than glad to have an agreement to gobble down with their Thanksgiving turkey, especially since NCM Executive Director Wendell Strode recently testified that even a temporary shutdown of the park would be devastating to the track, which still owes half of the $20 million project that is to be repaid by activities there.
