Panel to study noise from downtown events in Kalamazoo

Lead in text: 
An earlier proposal to limit nighttime hours of events held at Kalamazoo's Arcadia Creek Festival Site proved to be controversial.
KALAMAZOO, MI -- The Kalamazoo City Commission will consider a request Monday evening from Mayor Bobby Hopewell to appoint seven people to a task force to study the impact of late night festival and venue noise in downtown Kalamazoo. Hopewell was tasked by the Kalamazoo Downtown Development Authority last fall to convene a group of stakeholders to study the issue.
