Posted by tlstay Good Morning, My vehicle was stolen in February from my driveway. It was recovered in perfect condition after only a couple of days one mile from my house.

Posted by kcrowley Officer Michelle, Is there a law that pertains to playing loud music for extended periods of time from one’s garage and or vehicle parked in the driveway in a residential area? Thank you for your time. Dear kcrowley There certainly is a noise ordinance that pertains to your problem. If you live in the city limits, we still respond to noise complaints.

You can call the non-emergency number and have an officer dispatched. We will give the involved parties a warning. If they continue
