Safety And Licensing Committee Meeting 09/08/2021 – Will Take Up Excess Vehicle Noise Resolution

The Safety and Licensing Committee is meeting 09/08/2021 at 5:30 PM.

They have 3 action items on the agenda—2 sets of alcohol license applications renewals and then Resolution #14-R-21 regarding excessive vehicle noise.

Resolution #14-R-21 – Excessive Vehicle Noise

If passed, the resolution would amend the noise section of Appleton’s Municipal Code to include the following definitions:

“Intentional Vehicle Modifications to Emit Excessive Noise means any intentional after-market mechanical modifications to light motor vehicles which amplify the sound of escaping gases specifically designed to create excessive noise emissions under normal operation.”

“Intentional Vehicle Operation to Emit Excessive Noise means the operation of any intentional light motor vehicle operation in such a manner that the exhaust system emits a loud, cracking or chattering noise unusual to its normal operation with the express purpose of excessive combustion noise emissions.”

The resolution would also require that ”infractions of the Noise ordinance under these newly defined

classifications of intent, specifically to disrupt the peace, be enforced.”

The committee will also be receiving the standard information items including an update on special events, the Director’s Reports, and information on alcohol law violations.
