THE CITY COUNCIL HAS VOTED TO CHANGE THE NOISE ORDINANCE IN SIOUX CITY IN A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT WAYS. THE COUNCIL VOTED 3-2 TO EXTEND THE LENGTH OF TIME RELATED EQUIPMENT LIKE SPEAKERS AND AMPLIFIERS COULD BE OPERATED TO 1:30AM.
THE COUNCIL ALSO INCREASED THE NUMBER OF VIOLATIONS A PERSON OR BUSINESS COULD BE CONVICTED OF BEFORE REAPPLYING FOR A SOUND PERMIT TO TWICE.
KEITH RADIG AND TOM PADGETT VOTED AGAINST THE CHANGES.
THE COUNCIL ALSO VOTED 5-0 TO AMEND THE ANIMALS SECTION OF THE CITY MUNICIPAL CODE TO CLARIFY DENIAL OF AN EXCESS ANIMAL PERMIT AND THE DUTY OF AN ANIMAL OWNER TO PREVENT BITES OR ATTACKS.
