'I was at Rec park today (September 17) with my daughter and saw your sticker. I was suddenly glad to realize I am not the only one that has been hearing this noise. When Bates Troy was first being built I thought, wow this is great another business expanding here in Binghamton creating possibly more local jobs instead of moving some place else to expand. Sure it cost us 3 homes but they were not exactly on the historical registry either. But now they now have taken our community's kindness for a weakness and it must stop! I would like to become involved with your group and help get Bates Troy to obey local laws.' - Resident on Goethe St
