Summary
Sunrise sets no specific ordinance hours for residential garage sales. Daytime operation is the norm, bounded by the citywide noise limits, 60 dBA daytime, 55 dBA overnight in residential areas, and a duty to clear up afterward.
Sound from a motor vehicle or any other source shall not be plainly audible at a distance of twenty-five (25) feet or more.
Full Breakdown
No Sunrise ordinance fixes start and end times for a homeowner garage sale, so residents run them during normal daytime hours. What does bind is the noise code: under Sec. 9-22, residential sound may not exceed 60 dBA from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. or 55 dBA overnight, and under Sec. 9-18(e) sound from any source may not be plainly audible 25 feet away. Merchandise, tables, and signs must be cleared when the sale ends; items left in the yard or at the curb can become a nuisance under Sec. 9-2. Community Enhancement and Code Compliance officers patrol every weekend.
Violations & Fines
Amplified music or crowd noise breaching the Sec. 9-22 limits, or merchandise and signs left out after the sale, can draw a noise or nuisance citation from code enforcement.
