But it's not at where I live here in the Benjamin Region of Samaria.
It's in Missouri.
Here's the story:
A proposed change in the city’s noise ordinance would greatly loosen the restrictions on loud music and yelling in the downtown area.
The proposed changes would make noise from music and yelling illegal downtown between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m. if it can be heard from 300 feet away...
The ordinance is in part a reaction to the ongoing dispute between Shiloh Bar and Grill at Broadway and Fourth Street and its cross-street neighbor about the level of noise coming from the bar late at night. This dispute led Shiloh owner Tom Atkinson to construct an 8-foot plywood wall on the side of its property that faces Broadway. The wall has been discussed by two city commissions and is the subject of a letter from the Historic Preservation Commission asking the city to address the issue.
City Manager Bill Watkins said the proposed changes are an attempt to address the “root of the problem” with the Shiloh wall. Watkins said the proposed amendments to the ordinance were initiated by the owners and managers of Shiloh.
