What: Revisions to the Chapter 17 noise ordinance: a 150-foot quiet buffer near schools, houses of worship and healthcare facilities, a five-minute duration threshold, a "plainly audible" standard, a warning before citation, and an amplified-speech section.
Where it stands: at the November 2 work session the warning requirement and five-minute duration passed, effective January; the amplified-speech section failed for lack of a second.
Next: definitions and the remaining revisions return at a later work session.
