Dentist's holiday tradition hits sour note in Adams after noise complaint
- Adams dentist Dr. Martin K. Bush appeals a town enforcement order over the volume of his holiday window music.
- Town officials say the display interferes with health and normal operation, prompting potential fines or legal action.
- A neighbor filed the noise complaint, triggering the town’s response and the ensuing dispute.
- The case heads toward review by the Board of Health and possibly the Adams Select Board.
- Bush says he has used his children's ideas and modeled the display on Polar Express.
- The Board of Health canceled a planned public hearing due to a citation posting issue and will reschedule.
- Bush asserts his music remains well within Adams’ 65-decibel limit.
- Bush hopes to have the holiday music play again next Christmas season if the issue is resolved.
- The display features five model trains and a Polar Express-inspired village in the window.
- Bush has practiced dentistry in Adams since 1990 and has run the display for 20 years.
