A Word to the Wise

This message is extremely important:
The Town Board is trying to pass a new noise ordinance (read it here). They held a public hearing on April 17, 2019, but only two people showed up. I don't believe it was advertised very much.
I URGE everyone to read this noise ordinance. Pay particular attention to the sections that refer to public address systems, which could mean backyard parties; exhaust, which could mean your lawnmower; restrictions with respect to power equipment and tools, even garden tools; as well as enforcement and penalties.
All I can say is, I HOPE people get out at the next public hearing and voice their opinions. If not, they will ram this law through right under our noses.
PLEASE forward this proposed noise ordinance to all the people you can. If no one attends the next public hearing, it will become law.
The way I read this, you can get arrested if you run your lawn mower or chain saw on a Sunday or Holiday if the Police Department thinks it's an unnecessary noise…. Just saying…
