Full Breakdown

Sec. 22-24 sets the numeric ceiling for the whole Noise Control Ordinance through Table 1, keyed to the current use of the land at the property line closest to the noise: 60 dBA for residential by day and 55 dBA at night, 70/65 dBA for office and commercial land, and 75 dBA for industrial land around the clock (Class A). Sec. 22-22(c) requires the measurement be taken 50 feet from the property line generating the noise, and Sec. 22-22(d) bars exceeding the table for a cumulative minute or more in any 15-minute window. The Downtown Community Redevelopment Area is carved out under a separate, higher Table 2.

Violations & Fines

Enforced as a noncriminal infraction under Sec. 22-26; Code Enforcement and KPD share enforcement, citations must be paid or contested within 30 days, and a hearing officer may add up to $100 in costs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where is noise measured from to check the decibel limit?
50 feet from the property line generating the noise, or from the shared wall for units sharing a building, per Sec. 22-22(c).
Is the Downtown CRA held to the same limits?
No. Table 2 sets a higher 85 dBA daytime / 70 dBA nighttime limit there instead of the citywide Table 1.
