Local Government Impact: Local governments that elect to adopt ordinances to regulate noise on property that is exempt under current law may incur additional expenses to adopt and enforce those ordinances. These ordinances may generate fine revenue to those local governments.

Under current law, property used for manufacturing, industrial, or commercial business purposes is exempt from county ordinances enacted to regulate noise on public and private property. This bill deletes that exemption.

The bill will not affect state revenue or expenditures, but may affect any local government that elects to adopt such ordinances. Therefore, this bill is assessed as having a local conditional fiscal impact.

Any local government that elects to adopt these ordinances may incur additional costs for public hearings, rule-making, enforcement, and court litigation. These ordinances may specify fines as penalties which may generate revenue to those local governments. This fiscal note cannot assess the amount of those costs or revenue, if any.
