2 Alternative 1 ( CHANGE THE TIME): An amendment could PROlIIBIT certain types of activities that create offensive noises during the 10:00 pm to 7:00 am" time frame. Deliveries and rubbish pick-up are prime examples and have been regulated in the Commons/Crossings center area by PUD. Snow piowing is more complicated. There would be some hardship in shopping center areas, schools and churches, and areas where industrIal/office employees park if plowing could not be done over night. Alternative 2 ( CHANGE TIME & LOCATION): An amendment could regulate the noise by distance as well as time. For example the 10:00 pm to 7:00 am prohibited time frame may be adopted for all the areas of commercial/industrial properties thaf are within 300 feet of "R-l" and "R-2" land. Alternative 3 (PLAN BY OWNERS): An amendment could regulate the noise and other activities by requiring different times. setbacks, and an annual plan from each property owner/manager (with management changes or adaption) to be approved by the Council each fall - before the next snow season. The property owner could then decide if rubbish could be handled indoors, more screenirig and noise buffers provided on parking lots, or whether the owIier should simply comply with city times and/or setbacks. The exceptions to the Code would be street maintenance/plowing deemed necessary by the Public Works Director.
