(Part 1, Ord. 568, eff. December 28, 1978)
No person shall operate any sound amplification device at or
near a City park in such a manner that it will be audible at a distance
in excess of 100 feet from the sound amplifying equipment, unless
a sound amplification device permit is first obtained from the City
Manager or his or her designated representative. No person, in any
instance, shall operate a sound amplification device in such a manner
that the volume is unreasonably loud, raucous, jarring, disturbing,
or a nuisance to persons or domestic animals within any area of audibility.
Pursuant to Article 4 of this chapter, a permit for sound amplification
devices shall be obtained from the City Manager. The application for
such permit shall include a general description of the sound amplification
device which is to be used, the volume in decibels of the sound which
will be produced, and any other information which the City Manager
finds necessary will be required to make a fair determination as to
whether a sound amplification device permit should be issued. The
City Manager shall issue a sound amplification device permit when
he or she finds that the operation of such a sound amplification device
will not unreasonably disturb other users of the City park or adjacent
residences, even though the sound will be audible for a distance in
excess of 100 feet.

conduct of such trade, occupation, business, or profession is compatible
with the normal City park activities and uses, is convenient and beneficial
to City park patrons, and does not conflict with the business of established

park hours on the face of the permit of the special event involved.
