Amplified music rules in South Jordan, UT — also called sound permit, PA system, or live music ordinances — set decibel limits, time-of-day restrictions, and when permits are required.
Amplified music audible beyond the property line during quiet hours, or at unreasonable volume at any time, violates South Jordan Title 5 Chapter 3 noise provisions.
Amplified sound — stereos, live bands, DJ equipment, and PA systems — is regulated under South Jordan's noise ordinance. During quiet hours (10 PM–7 AM), amplified music plainly audible at the property line is a violation. Daytime amplified music must not be unreasonably loud. Events with amplified entertainment in parks or public spaces require a Special Event Permit from the City. Repeated party-noise calls can result in escalating citations and potentially Class C misdemeanor charges under Utah Code §76-9-102. HOA CC&Rs in communities like Daybreak frequently impose additional limits.
