Slippery Rock postpones noise ordinance change

SLIPPERY ROCK — After months of discussion, Borough Council decided to postpone amending a noise ordinance following concerns and suggestions expressed by multiple residents at a meeting Tuesday, Sept. 19.

The proposed amendment would have placed a maximum allowable noise level of 90 decibels. The current ordinance lacks a maximum noise level. Without language restricting noise to a certain level, the ordinance is not enforceable.

Council will discuss the amendment further at its next meeting, during which possible revisions and exceptions to the ordinance will be considered.

“Public input is needed,” council president Jeff Campbell said.
