Town officials, business owners reach compromise on live music at The Garage
Summary
Town staff and The Garage owners discussed neighbor noise complaints; the compromise limits live music to two bands per month, earlier set times, keeps bands inside and requires closing the overhang. Town staff will monitor compliance; no enforcement action recorded at the meeting.
Supervisor Corcoran reported on a meeting involving himself, Councilman Zambito, town police Chief Cocozza, and members of The Garage ownership to address noise complaints tied to live bands. According to the minutes, business owners said bands "bring business," and the parties agreed on a compromise: host no more than two bands per month, schedule earlier performance times, keep the band inside the building and close the overhang to reduce sound spill.
Minutes record that a band had played with a window open due to heat, but decibel levels were down and no formal complaints were filed; the owners committed to complying with the agreed limits. The meeting notes do not record any formal enforcement steps, citations, or a timeline for follow-up; town officials indicated understanding with the business and thanked Councilman Zambito for quick responses to maintenance and related concerns.
