Neither unincorporated Lee County nor its cities single out leaf blowers. Gas-powered equipment is used year-round, and only the general disorderly conduct noise standard limits when you can run them.
There is no leaf-blower-specific ordinance anywhere in Lee County, no hour windows and no gas-blower bans. Landscaping crews run gas equipment across Auburn, Opelika, and the rural county all year, helped by Alabama's long growing season. The only real limit is the unreasonable-noise standard in Ala. Code §13A-11-7, which could apply to blower use at genuinely unreasonable hours. HOAs in newer Auburn and Opelika subdivisions sometimes set landscaping-service hours in their covenants, so check those if you live in a covenanted community.
No leaf-blower-specific penalty exists. Running equipment at genuinely unreasonable hours could be cited as disorderly conduct. HOA covenant violations are handled separately by the association.
