Staff recommends approval of the first reading of Ordinance 2022-07

Summary

At the March 21, 2022, regular meeting of the Town Commission, Mrs. Kathleen Wolfarth stated under public comment that construction activity that is near her residence is occurring at all times of the day.  She inquired if we had a noise ordinance to prohibit such activity in the overnight hours.  Staff informed her that while the Town does not have a noise ordinance codified at this time, staff would look into potentially creating a noise ordinance based upon researching how neighboring communities regulate such activity in their jurisdictions.

At the May 16, 2022, regular Commission Meeting, staff presented draft language of Ordinance 2022-07 to the Town Commission for discussion and their input.  In response to the direction of the Town Commission, staff has prepared draft language for a proposed Section 7-13 of the Land Development Regulations for consideration of a recommendation by the Planning and Zoning Board at this time.
