For outdoor music, Bountiful City Code 5-6-102 requires an amplified sound license for any sound amplifier used out of doors, or indoors when it reaches people outdoors. After 11:00 p.m. general noise limits apply, and Layton caps sound plainly audible at the property line after 9 p.m.
Outdoor concerts, backyard parties and event sound in Davis County are governed by city codes. Bountiful City Code 5-6-102 makes it unlawful to operate any sound amplifier out of doors, or indoors when operated to reach persons out of doors, without a current amplified sound license from the city; the license lists the location, hours and days of operation and can be summarily revoked by police if the sound is unreasonably disturbing. Once quiet hours begin (11:00 p.m. in Bountiful, 9 p.m. under Layton's plainly-audible standard), amplified outdoor sound must stop or be brought within the property line. Apply for the amplified sound license in advance for weddings, festivals and similar outdoor events.
Operating without a license is unlawful; license revocable on probable cause of disturbance.
