The Chief of Police, or a designated representative, and/or

enforcement of this chapter.
The Chief of Police, or a designated representative, and/or
the Zoning Officer shall be authorized to make inspections of all
noise sources, performing tests or taking noise measurements, whenever
necessary to determine the quantity and character of the noise. If
any person, partnership or corporation refuse or restrict entry and
free access to any part of a premises, or refuses inspection, testing
or noise level measurement of any activity, device, facility, motor
vehicle, or process where inspection is sought, the Chief of Police,
or a designated representative, and/or the Zoning Officer may seek
any appropriate action or proceeding to allow entry and free access
without interference, restriction or obstruction, at a reasonable
time, for the purpose of inspecting, testing or measuring noise levels.
Any person, partnership, or corporation, who violates this chapter,
or any part of this chapter, shall receive a verbal order to cease
or abate the noise immediately or within a reasonable time period.
A written enforcement notice shall be served upon the person, partnership,
or corporation within 12 hours of receiving a verbal order to cease
or abate the noise immediately or within a reasonable time period.
Any person, partnership, or corporation shall have the right to file
an appeal with the Municipal Manager within three working days of
receiving the written enforcement notice.
Any person, partnership, or corporation who or which shall violate
the provisions of this chapter shall, upon conviction thereof in a
summary proceeding, be sentenced to pay a fine of not more than $500.
In default of payment of the fine, such person, the members of such
partnership, or the officers of such corporation shall be liable to
imprisonment for not more than 60 days. Each day that a violation
is continued shall constitute a separate offense.
In case any building, structure or land is, or is proposed to
be, erected, constructed, reconstructed, altered, converted, maintained
or used in violation of this chapter, Council may, in addition to
other remedies, institute in the name of the Municipality any appropriate
action or proceeding to prevent, restrain, correct, or abate such
