Peaceful hours
I am wondering if anyone knows what the hours are for peace?? I live directly accross from a construction sight and this morning about 5:45am i could hear those darn trucks out there with there noisy beeps going off. I wanted to walk out of my house in my p.j.'s and slap someone!! lol I think anytime before 7am is rude but i was wondering what the law is? And also who would i complain to about the noise?

Most local noise ordinances designate certain "quiet hours" -- for example, from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. on weekdays and until 8 or 9 a.m. on weekends. So running a power mower may be perfectly acceptable at 10 a.m. on Saturday, but not at 7 a.m. Some universally disturbing sounds are commonly banned or restricted. For instance, most cities prohibit honking car horns unless there is danger. This means that the daily early morning tooting across the street for the carpool is a violation. Dogs and motorcycles may also be singled out. Many towns also prohibit sustained noise that exceeds a certain decibel level. The decibel limits are set according to the time of day and the neighborhood zoning. When a neighbor complains, police place decibel level monitoring equipment on an estimated property line and take a reading. http://www.nolo.com/article...

I think you call the police to complain, just like you would if a noisy party was keeping you up all night.

Once my neighbor complained that I was being too noisy too early, so I did call the police because I do try to obey the law. The deputy took some time to really research this and finally said in Kern co gardeners/agricultural workers can start working at sunup. I concluded that Caesar Chavez may have had something with to do with this, it gets hot later on. I do try to be quiet in the early am just to be courteous to her though.
