We lost our control line field several years ago which was located on the grounds of a technical college. We had been there for about 10 years with no complaints. In fact most of the neighbors would come out to watch us and ask questions. Problems started when a NEW neighbor moved in.

They also lodged complaints against the school about the noise from their autobody school, a local full scale airport and a fire department training site on campus. A sports car club would also hold races on the parking lot - and we'd get the complaints.
