Robert Stefan addressed the commission during oral communications on March 19, saying the Typhoon ride at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk produces a long, high‑pitched "whiny siren type note" that fills adjacent neighborhoods. He said the ride "was supposed to be within the sound levels of the other rides, but it's not" and suggested the operator could install better mufflers or otherwise modify the ride to reduce noise.
