TITLE:
Discussion of possible revisions to the Nuisance Noise Ordinance
DESIRED OUTCOME:
Direction from City Council on possible revisions to the Nuisance Noise Ordinance.
Executive Summary:
In December 2022, City Council adopted the vehicle noise ordinance and requested a combined work group discuss nuisance noise. The combined work group of the Downtown Business Alliance, business owners, residents, and City staff met to review other ordinances and came to a consensus to not use decibels and focus on minor updates to the existing policy.
City staff presented potential updates to the existing policy to City Council on September 24, 2024 and received their feedback on what they would like to see in the proposed Nuisance Noise Ordinance. City staff will present the updated Noise Control Chapmter in the City Code to confirm this reflects CIty Council's direction.

There will be discussion around the noise restriction days and times, prohibition of sustained and pervasive noise that causes unreasonable disturbance of the peaceful enjoyment of another person, civil penalities, and any other section of the Noise Control Chapter the Council would like to review and discuss.
