Summary

The board directed staff to recruit about 10–12 residents for a Noise Ordinance Review Committee and to return with appointments at the July meeting; the committee is intended to produce a working draft for a replacement ordinance.

Board members directed staff to assemble a Noise Ordinance Review Committee to develop replacement noise-ordinance language with public input. One board member described the process as "the people's ordinance" and encouraged residents on all sides of the issue to apply.

Staff said the board previously voted to create the review committee and that staff will gather names of interested residents; the board will review applications and make appointments at the July meeting. A board member estimated "10, maybe 11, maybe 12" residents had expressed interest, and staff said they would continue outreach to gather additional participants.

The committee is intended to bring multiple perspectives to drafting the replacement ordinance; the board emphasized the goal of producing a document that "works for the community." No formal charge, selection criteria, or final timeline for the committee's drafting work was recorded in the meeting.
