We, the residents of 510 Murray Street, are writing this letter to complain about the
golf balls being hit over the fence from the driving range located at the comer of Cherokee
Lane and Lockford Street. These golf balls are damaging our cars.
We have been calling for several years the Lodi Police Department, the City Hall,
the Department of Parks and Recreation and nothing seems to get done. Most of the time
they would say "we will get back to us", but never do.
The owners of the range did put up a IV fence but moved it in 10' from the present
one so it does no good at all.
These balls not only damage our cars but have broken windows and are just plain
dangerous to any of us walking in this compound. An exarnple, my mother in her 90's had
a ball drop right in front of her face another former resident was hit in the head with one
and the
other day we watched as a ball nearly hit a toddler across the street from us in the
apartments.
We. (most of us) have gone over to the driving range to try to talk to the owners
and all we get is "we'll try to be more carrfW".
'(here must be some kind of solution to this on going problem. I don't know why
they can't drive the balls from Cherokee Lane towards the festival buildings, Which would
help us a lot..
We not only want this dangerous practice stopped, but we want our cars mpa;iredl
We are all pensioners here and cant afford the money it would take to fix the cars
ourselves.
We hope, Mr. Davenport, that you can help us. After listening to you en the City
Council meetings, we feel you won't let this appeal just sit and gather dust!. Keep up the
good work and thank you for your time. Any question pertaining to the above matter,
please call one of the telephone numbers listed below.
Sincerely,
�L9-7�iI The residents of 510 Murray St.
