Noise Ordinance


Last night I was at a party with Helen Greene and asked her about Lake Worth's new Noise Ordinance. The new Ordinance went into effect on Friday. She and her husband, Bud, have taken an activist position in getting this Ordinance passed. As she said, "Hopefully we will now be able to sleep." Helen is also hoping that the new Ordinance will work out for all concerned, nearby residents as well as bar owners.

The Standards of the Ordinance are:

85 decibels 5 days a week, Sunday through Thursday from 7am until 11pm

65 decibels 5 days a week, Sunday through Thursday from 11pm until 7am

85 decibels, 2 days a week, Friday & Saturday, 7am until Midnight

65 decibels, 2 days a week, Friday & Saturday, Midnight until 7am
