Goodyear prohibits construction, landscaping, or repair work in or within 500 feet of a residential zoning district before 7:00 AM or after 7:00 PM on Saturdays, Sundays, and city holidays. Weekday construction has more permissive hours. The City Manager may issue permits for alternative hours.
Under Goodyear Code Section 11-1-8, construction, landscaping, or repair work within a residential zoning district, or within 500 feet of a residential zoning district, shall not begin prior to 7:00 AM and must stop by 7:00 PM on any Saturday, Sunday, or legally recognized City holiday. Weekday construction is subject to general noise standards but has more permissive hours. Construction work may be conducted at different times if a permit is obtained from the City Manager or authorized representative through written application. This applies to all construction-type equipment, power tools, and landscaping equipment. The hot desert climate means early morning construction starting at first light is common on weekdays.
Construction during prohibited hours on weekends/holidays may result in citations. The City Manager may authorize alternative hours by permit.
