The City of El Paso Environmental Services, Planning and Inspections, and the Police Departments invite the public to attend and participate in several community meetings on a proposed revision to the City’s noise ordinance.

The City is exploring ways to improve and clarify the existing noise ordinance. The proposal is to replace the current noise ordinance with a noise nuisance ordinance that:

• Lists common nuisance conditions in everyday language that is easy for the public and enforcement officers to understand
• Will be more restrictive during the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m.
• Does not require decibel readings to be taken to confirm a nuisance

In addition, a new ordinance is proposed for establishments that play amplified sound outdoors after 10 p.m.

Residents are encouraged to attend and give input at the community meetings scheduled at 6 p.m. on the following dates:

Mission Valley Regional Command, 9011 Escobar

Westside Regional Command, 4801 Osborne

Wednesday, April 11

Northeast Regional Command, 9600 Dyer
