Haha, thanks. It's just frustration that's been building for 25 years.
They've been mostly complaining about things they can notify the council to themselves (via the website/app), like trash being dumped, a clogged drain or broken street lighting.
Up until seven or eight years ago there were students living above two neighbouring restaurants that threw loud parties lasting until the early morning regularly. We called the police about it. But they waited until the next day and come complain to us about it.
Since the students moved out the noise complaints have stopped. At least the valid ones. Occasionally a neighbour has a loud-ish party or barbecue (nothing compared to the students), but it always stop at a reasonable time.
That doesn't mean the complainer (two or three) haven't stopped. Especially during Covid they got worse. Complaining to us about neighbours sitting outside talking on nice evenings.
They came again yesterday, trying to get me to take over from my parents. I shut that down quickly. Also, they don't know the plans for the cooking classes; they won't have a conversation with the company until next week. The smart thing to do is wait for that talk, see what the plans are and discuss your fears with them. See what the company's reaction is and if you're still afraid it will cause a nuisance then you can take action. Going to the talk all huffy and puffy won't do them any good, I think. But that's their problem now.
