Full Breakdown
Within 500 feet of residentially zoned property (other than R-A), construction activity using manual tools or power equipment - electric, diesel, or gas-powered - is barred outside 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. on weekdays and 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. on public holidays, Saturdays, and Sundays. The restriction covers movement of equipment as well as active work, so staging noisy machinery before 7:00 a.m. also violates the section.
