Baldwin Park caps noise received on another person's property at 70 dBA in industrial zones day and night, and 55 dBA day / 45 dBA night at R-1 homes. Municipal Code § 130.34 sets the table.
Municipal Code § 130.34 makes it unlawful to produce noise received on property occupied by another person above the zone limit. Day runs 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. and night 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. Limits are R-1 55 dBA day / 45 dBA night, RG and R-3 60/55, Commercial 65/60, and Industrial 70 dBA at all hours. At a boundary between residential and commercial or manufacturing property, the quieter zone's limit governs. A 5 dB penalty applies to steady whine, screech, or hum, capturing data-center chillers and cooling fans.
Noise above the § 130.34 limits is a Municipal Code violation. The City may cite the operator and seek injunctions and additional remedies under § 130.36.
