Commercial properties in Port St. Lucie must keep noise within 65 dBA during day and 55 dBA at night at the nearest residential property line.
PSL Code sets commercial noise limits at residential property lines to protect homes abutting US-1, Port St. Lucie Boulevard, Crosstown Parkway, and the Gatlin Boulevard corridor. HVAC systems, delivery truck idling, trash compactors, and drive-through speakers are typical compliance issues. The citys rapid retail growth in Tradition and Southern Grove has increased complaints. Businesses must screen mechanical equipment and may be required to install sound walls as part of site plan approval.
