"To the Snoqualmie Casino, Tribe: the issue is the same. I still do not get to choose whether I feel, hear, and know your noise. Even if (outdoor concerts are held) fewer times this summer and not as loud, I am among those who knew and still know when you took away the wilderness in our backyards; when foundations sank during parking lot construction; when ditches along your property line and our street reek of sewer; when property values decrease, and when your noise returns.

Now that you are not as loud, you have become more, as you would say, good neighborly, to those further out, like Reinig Road.

The noise is still noise to the ones nearest you— Southeast 88th. As you would say, “just sit back and enjoy the music.” Perhaps we should be compensated so we will just shut up and enjoy the music. Let me know, I will send some names."
