- Sharp or piecing;
- Shrill, or explosive;
- Unnecessarily loud or persistent and/or annoying, but shall not include a sound intended to warn persons of danger or an emergency; or
- Operate any engine or motor powered machine used for gardening, or landscaping or on lawns between 11:00 pm and 7:00 am.
No occupant of any property within the City shall make, or allow another person within or on their property to make, any noise which may be a nuisance. Any breach of this bylaw may result in the Enforcement Officer ordering the occupant and any other person found therein to cease causing the noise, a warning being issued or a fine ranging from $150.00 to $500.00.
