Don’t Construction Workers Know It’s Sunday?!!

sedonakathy — Sun, 17 Oct 2010 17:42:22 +0000

Sedona is not unique in its noise ordinance. From the City of Sedona’s website:

“Q. What are the hours for construction activities within the City of Sedona?
A. Generally construction activity is allowed from 6:00 am to 9:00 pm Monday through Saturday with a valid building permit. During these hours construction activities are exempt from Sedona sound regulations except for national holidays. ”

Why don’t owners, contractors, and sub-contractors respect noise ordinances? The ordinance is in place to respect the rights of the all citizens of the community.

Let’s be nice to each other…
