Commissioners grant noise variance for RTR Speedway fireworks on Oct. 11
Summary
Elkhart County commissioners approved a noise ordinance variance for a roughly 20-minute fireworks show at RTR Speedway on Oct. 11, an event organizers said will run about 9 p.m. and occur on speedway property.
The Elkhart County Board of Commissioners approved a noise ordinance variance allowing a fireworks show on RTR Speedway property during an event scheduled for Oct. 11.
Jeff Taylor, county administrator, described the request by RTR Speedway Inc. to hold a roughly 20-minute fireworks show beginning around 9 p.m. on Oct. 11 as part of an event the promoter named "Rectober Night of Destruction." Taylor said the speedway's event hours were to run from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m. and that the fireworks are for attendee entertainment. He said the neighbors were informed via social media and that the speedway has hosted similar events previously.
A motion to approve the noise variance for fireworks only passed by voice vote.
The variance applies only to the fireworks activity on speedway property on the date specified; organizers remain responsible for compliance with other county and state requirements unrelated to the board's variance approval.
