Amplified sound attributable to an event at the Approved Premises must remain below 50 dBA at every boundary of the Property. If the Code Enforcement Officer, police officer, or another duly authorized enforcement official determines, using a calibrated sound-level meter, that amplified sound attributable to the event measures 50 dBA or greater at any boundary of the Property, that official may order the event to cease immediately, impose a fine, or take other action as prescribed by law. The Applicant, operator, and on-duty manager shall comply immediately upon receipt of the order. No prior warning or opportunity to reduce the volume is required. The determination must distinguish sound attributable to the event from unrelated background sound, including traffic, and must document the measurement location, time, reading, and instrument used. The event may not resume without express authorization from the official who issued the order or such official’s immediate supervisor. Compliance with this numerical limit does not excuse a violation of Chapter 171 of the Village Code or any other permit condition.
