Lelystad alderman Sanne de Wilde said she would organise a meeting between football club VV Unicum and the Flevoland and Gooi- en Vechtstreek environmental service (OFGV) to discuss restrictions imposed because of noise at the club’s fields. She made the commitment during a council meeting after the PVV requested that the measures be withdrawn immediately. Since 1 October, Unicum has not been allowed to use a public-address system or drums during home matches at Schouw sports park, or to announce the teams with music. Torches and fireworks are also prohibited. The OFGV said measurements showed that noise around the fields was too high and that the club had breached the rules. Residents, particularly in the Gondel district, had complained about nuisance from the football fields for years.
