Walton council approves first reading of ordinance to regulate industrial and mechanical noise
Summary
At its Sept. 20, 2021 meeting the Walton council approved the first reading of Ordinance 2021-14 to add restrictions on disturbing and unnecessary factory, industrial and mechanical noises; details were not specified in the minutes.
The Walton common council held the first reading of ORDINANCE NO. 2021-14, an amendment to the Walton code intended to regulate disturbing and unnecessary factory, industrial and mechanical noises.
Council member Matt Brown moved to approve the ordinance on first reading and Bobby McDonald seconded. The motion passed on a roll-call vote with all council members recorded as voting "yes." The minutes do not include text of the ordinance, detail about prohibited noise levels, enforcement provisions, penalties or an implementation timeline.
Because this was a first reading, additional hearings, revisions or a second reading could be required before the ordinance would take effect; the minutes do not record the next steps or schedule.
