[Vision2020] noise ordinance

[Tom Hansen]

One option may be to allow for anonymous complaints.  If somebody feels that
their privacy has been invaded by loud, intrusive sounds emanating from a
residence in their neighborhood, perhaps they should be permitted to simply
make an anonymous call to the MPD requesting that a patrol unit simply drive
by the residence in question and decide for themselves.

 

Thoughts?

I think a compromise can be made on the noise ordinance.  How about limiting
it to noise after a certain time, say 10:00pm.  I doubt that someone who
respects a neighborhood and being neighborly will blatantly be disrespectful
to neighbors after that time.  If they do, cite them.  Maybe even go as far
as involving alcohol, that tends to create more problems at times like beer
cans/bottles in neighbors yards/broken in the street, along with the
yelling/singing of "DAYO" at 11:30pm while the neighborhood kids are in bed
trying to sleep (along with most of the parents).  I personally have a
problem with someone that leaves a half  or even quarter empty beer can next
to my curb for my 4 yr old to find by accident -not cool. I don't have a
problem with someone honking their horn obnoxiously (well maybe a little
-just being honest) in the daytime but at 11:30 at night because they are
too lazy to go to the door that is 30 ft away -I have a problem with that.
Then after drinking at the house/apt. the whole crew piles into cars to hit
the bars and I hope and pray that is all they hit -All I can say is that I
hope they have a designated driver.  It is about being a responsible,
considerate, and respectful neighbor.
