Huntington restricts leaf blower use to weekdays 8 AM to 6 PM and weekends 9 AM to 5 PM. Gas blowers are permitted but must meet manufacturer noise specs under Chapter 141.
Leaf blowers fall under Chapter 141 landscaping equipment rules. Commercial landscapers must observe town noise hours and cannot operate before 8:00 AM on weekdays or 9:00 AM on weekends.

Fines of $250 for first offense and up to $1,000 for repeat offenses. Commercial landscapers risk Town licensing issues with repeated citations.
