JUN 5 1990 <br />BOOK 80 F,mn zip d <br />TO: Board of County DATE: May 30, 1990 FILE: <br />Commissioners <br />SUBJECT: Noise Ordinance <br />FROM: Gary C. wheeler. REFERENCES: <br />County Commissioners <br />It is my request that you direct staff to research and draft an <br />ordinance similar to't-he noise ordinance of the City of Vero <br />Beach. It is my understanding that the City has had considerable <br />success and the State Attorney's office successfully prosecuted, - <br />violators, therefore, I believe this could solve some of the many <br />problems we have had in -the County relating to unwanted noise. <br />Commissioner Wheeler reported that there have been numerous <br />noise complaints recently about boom boxes especially, and <br />Chairman Eggert advised that the first noise ordinance workshop <br />is scheduled for Thursday, June 14th between 9:00 a.m. to 12:00, <br />and they will be looking at the City's noise ordinance. She <br />noted that we also have received complaints about excessive noise <br />from a motorcycle practice track that has been established in an <br />agricultural area in the Fellsmere area, and there is nothing on <br />the books that can help them right now except the fact that they <br />didn't cut the trees down for agricultural purposes. We have <br />also received reports that shots have been fired out there. <br />88 <br />
