Full Breakdown
Under HMC § 8.84.030(G), loading docks, delivery drivers and businesses cannot make loading/unloading noise that crosses into a neighboring residential lot between 11:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. the following day. It is one of the chapter's per se violations, so no separate 'unreasonable' showing is needed once the hours and property-line test are met. A violation of Chapter 8.84 is a misdemeanor under § 8.84.050. Special-event or parade permit holders acting within their permit conditions are exempt under § 8.84.040.
Violations & Fines
Misdemeanor under HMC § 8.84.050; enforced by Henderson Police/code enforcement on a residential complaint that loading noise crossed the property line during the 11 p.m.–7 a.m. window.
