DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
Many people congregate in the Silver Glen Springs and Silver Glen Run area located in Marion County, some of whom are utilizing excessively loud and amplified sound systems or other sound devices on and off their boats for personal entertainment. Their excessive use of amplified sound systems or other sound devices are having negative and deleterious effects on other users of the Silver Glen Springs and Silver Glen Run who are unable to peaceably enjoy the Silver Glen Springs and Silver Glen Run areas. It is critical to the health, safety and well-being of Marion County citizens that the excessively loud and amplified sounds within the Silver Glen Springs and Silver Glen Run area be regulated.
The proposed ordinance will continue to provide for alcohol prohibition and enforcement and add noise control, enforcement, and penalties specifically in Silver Glen Springs and Silver Glen Run in a newly created section under Chapter 5 - Boats, Docks and Waterways, entitled Article VI, Silver Glen Springs and Silver Glen Run.
