Vera, Assitant City Manager/Service <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />10/15/2009 <br /> <br />RE: <br /> <br />Amendment to Noise Ordinance <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br /> <br />Staff recommends approval of the attached ordinance amending the noise ordinance. <br /> <br />REASONS: <br /> <br />Staff has received numerous complaints due to noise issues generating from mechanical <br />equipment that is installed in new and existing buildings. Upon review of Chapter 193 of <br />the City Code staff noted that certain mechanical equipment within buildings had not <br />been clearly spelled out in the Code. <br /> <br />This amendment to Chapter 193 includes a definition for different types of mechanical <br />equipment that generate excessive noise which creates a nuisance to adjoining properties <br />and property owners. It also prohibits any mechanical equipment from being in operation <br />if they exceed the required 60 decibel currently in the Code. Additionally, we have <br />changed the hours of operation for routine landscaping and yard maintenance. The hours <br />of operation are Monday - Friday 7:30 am to 8:00 pm and Saturday 9:00 am to 8:00 pm. <br /> <br />ATTACHMENTS: <br />. Ordinance <br />.
