An Overhaul Of New York's Noise Code
Mayor Bloomberg pushes an initiative to quiet blaring stereos, noisy construction sites, and honking cars.
Mayor Bloomberg has proposed "a sweeping overhaul of the city's noise code, the first in more than 30 years. Contending there is nothing "frivolous" about complaints about loud noises, his new plan targets everything from jackhammers to barking dogs... It's easier, he insists, to stop honking horns than it is to move a roaring highway out of a nice suburban neighborhood."
