If I had to guess, it has to do with those whiners downtown about the concerts at Icon because they bought expensive condos with no noise insulation.
During public input at the council meeting this week a lady who has frequented the council many times informed them of what she has learned about the noise ordinances in town.
They haven’t been updated for decades.
The complaint is there are parties going on at public parks. Totally legal. The problem is the bumping music above allowable decibel levels.
If the city had actual noise ordinances in place they could stop this. They do, but they lack enforcement.
But the interesting part is how the city tries to sweep away the flies. They claim that the party goers see the health department official or PD coming and they turn the music off before they arrive. So why not show up undercover? Show up in an unmarked vehicle walking a dog thru the park and whip out the badge. This isn’t rocket science.
Either way, the city needs to address noise ordinances.
