No county STR noise rule exists; cities and townships set noise limits, with state disorderly-conduct (ORC 2917.11) as a backstop. Hamilton requires posted quiet hours of 10 pm to 6 am when the unit is within 100 feet of another home, tied to its noise ordinance.
Butler County has no county-wide short-term-rental noise ordinance; townships and cities regulate noise, and Ohio's disorderly-conduct statute (ORC 2917.11) is the state backstop. Hamilton Chapter 758 requires every short-term rental to post quiet hours from 10:00 pm to 6:00 am if the unit is within 100 feet of another residential dwelling, and to comply with Hamilton Municipal Code 509.11 on annoying noises plus the Zoning Ordinance performance standards. A rental must not generate noise, trash, traffic, glare or odors that unreasonably interfere with neighbors' use of their property. Repeated noise complaints count as calls for service that can lead to denial or revocation of the license.
Quiet-hour and police noise violations are common documented calls for service under Hamilton 758.09; more than two service calls in a year can justify denying a new or renewal license.
