East Lake Considers Stricter Noise Ordinance, Exploring Decibel Meters and Specific Guidelines
The council discussed amendments to the noise ordinance to provide more specific guidance for officers and to address community complaints about excessive noise, particularly from events and vehicles. The current ordinance is considered vague, relying heavily on officer discretion. The discussion explored the possibility of incorporating decibel readers, benchmarking against other cities, and defining specific noise levels that would be considered unreasonable. Residents voiced concerns about noise from events, motorcycles, and cars, especially near the river, highlighting enforcement challenges due to lack of specific metrics.
East Lake Moves Forward with Community Block Grant Application to Fund Development Projects
The council reviewed two proposed ordinances (071408 and 071409) related to participating in the Urban Entitlement Community Block Grant (CDBG) program. These funds, made available by the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, are crucial for community development projects. The city plans to apply through the county due to the extensive paperwork involved in direct application. These funds have historically been used for significant infrastructure projects such as roadwork and handicap ramps.
