Bridgewater Endorses First Reading Of Noise By-Law

Bridgewater has introduced new legislation regarding unwanted sound in the town. Council has endorsed first reading of a noise by-law. The by-law includes establishing maximum decibel limits including 75 decibels overnight and 90 decibels during the day. Strategic Initiatives Coordinator, Amy Wamboldt, says there are benefits to using a decibel system.



The by-law wouldn't apply to activities like noises caused by emergency response vehicles, Canada Day or religious holidays or scheduled festivals. The issue has come to light recently after several residents complained about a loud refrigeration unit at No Frills. Mayor David Walker says he's not convinced a by-law is the necessary step. He hopes residents will take time to view the document and make comments on the town's website. Council will have another discussion on the matter on November 25.
