Twin Falls, ID Public Conduct: Loud Party Ordinance (2026)

Section 6-2-3, titled Disorderly Conduct, Houses, sits in Title 6, Chapter 2 (General Offenses) of the Twin Falls City Code and was last amended by Ord. O-2024-011 on 8-19-2024. Subsection (A) reaches the person who makes the noise. Anyone who wilfully causes loud or unusual noise, or engages in tumultuous or offensive conduct, or does anything that disturbs the peace or quiet of any person, persons or neighborhood, is guilty of disorderly conduct, and the subsection classes a conviction as a misdemeanor. The standard is the peace of the neighborhood, not a measured volume, so a complaint from a single neighbor can be enough to support a citation.

Subsection (F) reaches the host, and it is the provision that matters for house parties. It bars any person from keeping a disorderly house or place of business, and it also bars that person from permitting or suffering drunkenness, fighting, quarreling, unlawful games or riotous or disorderly conduct or breach of the peace in any house, place or building owned, kept, used or occupied by him. The list of connecting words is broad: an owner, a tenant and anyone who merely uses the building all fall inside it, so a host answers for what guests do on the premises, not only for his own behavior.

The section prints no clock hours for party noise. The only hours anywhere in 6-2-3 appear in subsection (B), which covers construction work between 10:00 P.M. and 6:00 A.M. and is a separate rule. Enforcement runs through the Twin Falls Police Department, and Section 1-4-1 lets the city manager's designated code enforcement officer enforce the code by issuing Idaho uniform citations. Subsection (A) states its own classification, a misdemeanor. Subsection (F) prints no penalty of its own, and Section 1-4-1 is the code's general penalty clause for sections where no special penalty is provided.
