Jurupa Valley, CA Noise Ordinances: Amplified Music & Events (2026)

Chapter 11.05 applies to 'sound emanating from all sources,' including loudspeakers, public address systems, bands, DJs, and live music. There is no separate stand-alone amplified-sound subsection; instead the general Table 1 limits in § 11.05.040 govern - 55 dBA Leq day / 45 dBA Leq night at any other occupied residential property, and 65/55 dBA at commercial properties. Operators of bars, restaurants, banquet halls, churches and event venues that cannot meet those limits must apply for a 'continuous events exception' under § 11.05.070(1)(b): the application goes to the Planning Director, the Planning Commission holds a noticed public hearing (notice per § 9.240.250), and conditions on sound level, duration, and operating hours may be imposed. Appeals to City Council are available within 10 days under § 2.05.060. Single-event amplified-sound permits for parades, festivals, or block parties are typically processed alongside the City's special-event permit. Note: parties, weddings and similar private gatherings on residential property must still meet the 45/55 dBA limits at the property line - the City may also cite the underlying power-tools/equipment subsection § 11.05.060(2) when amplifiers or speakers are involved, since the 'audible more than 100 feet' rule applies broadly.
