I would not assume that, at all, unless you spoke with them.
We had a local couple pour their heart and soul into a local 1/8th mile, only to be taken to court after completion and they are shut down. It's out in the country with no immediate neighbors.
The complaint was noise, even though racing would have been Saturday only and ending by 9 PM. The ones that complained took it to court, and were told unless they posted a bond the track would be allowed to open. These two busy bodies posted nearly 100K bond to shut it down last year. No racing until further court battles.
