Niles council safety committee works out details of noise ordinance


NILES — After months of debates and revisions, the safety committee of Niles City Council worked out a noise control ordinance that its chairman, Ed Stredney, believes will meet with council’s approval.

“This version is more definitive and spells everything out, especially exceptions,” Stredney said at today’s committee session.

Key to the resolution is the removal of several items that had provoked several council members into open opposition, including a noise restriction after 9 p.m. Sundays through Thursdays.
